Abstract

On the basis of the relative and absolute chronology of some sound changes in (Bavarian) Old and Middle High German as well as in Proto-Slavic, Alpine Slavic, and Early Slovene, it is possible to establish a precise relative and absolute chronology of the time of the borrowing of (Bavarian) Old and Middle High German loanwords into (dialect and standard) Slovene, provided that the loans analyzed display diagnostic German and/or Slovene characteristics at the phonological level. For a more precise determination of the time of the integration of (Bavarian) Old High German loanwords into Slovene, certain (Bavarian) Old High German sound changes around AD 750, 770, and 1050 and certain late Proto-Slavic and early Common Slavic sound changes around AD 800 are decisive. To particularize the time of the integration of (Bavarian) Middle High German borrowings in Slovene, especially some (Bavarian) Middle High German sound changes around AD 1050, 1100, 1200, and 1250 are relevant.
