Toponim Preserje in slovansko‑romansko prepletanje pripon ‑jane in ‑anum

Abstract

The article begins by presenting the etymology of the toponym Preserje from *Prě‑syr‑jane on the basis of comparative Slavic material and literature. The second part of the article presents the dilemma regarding the linguistic affiliation of the entire toponym group in Friuli and on the western Slovenian border due to illusory coincidence of the Slovenian suffix ‑jane (originally referring to inhabitants) and the Romance suffix ‑ano/‑ana < ‑anum. In addition, a Slovenian origin is suggested for some of these toponyms.V prispevku je v prvem delu na podlagi primerjalnega slovanskega gradiva in literature podana etimologija toponima Preserje iz *Prě‑syr‑jane. V drugem delu je prikazana dilema glede jezikovne pripadnosti cele skupine toponimov v Furlaniji in na zahodnem slovenskem robu zaradi navideznega sovpada slovenske (prvotno stanovniške) pripone ‑jane in romanske pripone ‑ano/‑ana < ‑anum ter predlagan slovenski izvor za nekatere od njih
