Novogradskie dialects

As a single dialectal region, the Novogradsky dialects (as part of the southeastern Middle Slovenka range) are presented on the dialectological map of I. Ripka , published in the Atlas obyvatel'stva Slovenska (2001) ^[6] , and (as part of the southern middle Slovenian area) in the classification, published in the publication "Dialectology of the Slovak language" K. V. Lifanova (2012) ^[4] .

The area of ​​Novogradskiy dialects is located in the southern part of Slovakia . According to the modern administrative-territorial division of Slovakia , the range of Novogradsk dialects is located in the southern and central regions of the Banská Bystrica Territory (the largest settlements in this region are Luchenets , Modri-Kamen , Velky-Krtish , Filakovo ) ^{[10] [13] [14]} .

From the northeast, west and north, the ranges of the remaining southern dialects of the Middle Slovenian dialect are adjacent to the range of Novogradsky: from the northeast, the area of ​​distribution of gemersky dialects , from the west - area of ​​distribution of Gontyansky dialects , from the north - area of Zvolzhensky dialects . In the south and southeast, Novogradsk dialects border the range of diverse Slovak dialects, some of which are spread throughout the Hungarian language .

The name of Novogradsky dialects, as well as the names of a significant part of the remaining groups of Slovak dialects, is associated with the name of one of the historical committees of the Hungarian kingdom , within most of which these dialects were formed ^{[9] [10] [11]} .
