PROJECTS

Arcticae horulae

• e-archive of the project (1991-2005)
• Dictionary of "Germanisms" in Slovene language (1997), on-line edition (2005)

For a long time the artist Alenka Pirman had collected "Germanisms" appearing daily in everyday Slovene conversation, but which are not allowed in the written or formal usage of the language. The artist concluded the project with the publication of a dictionary of these words (1997) and with the on-line edition in 2005.
