The treatment of demonyms, ktetics and exonyms in the more recent printed and online sources of the Institute of Croatian Language and Linguistics

Abstract

In this paper, the treatment of demonyms, ktetics, and exonyms in the more recent print and online sources of the Institute of Croatian Language and Linguistics is described. In the introductory part of the paper, the question of which of the forms of the demonyms and ktetics are appropriate for use in standard Croatian is discussed, and steps toward a new definition for exonyms are taken. In the body of the paper, the method for the treatment of demonyms, ktetics and exonyms in the Školski rječnik hrvatskog jezika (Scholastic Dictionary of Croatian Language) and the Baza etnika i ktetika (Database of demonyms and ktetics) is shown.
