The dictionary of common Balkan lexemes in standardized languages includes words from the Sprachbund of Balkan languages (Albanian, Bulgarian, Greek and Romanian). The dictionary contains 544 articles, in each of which the common words in the given languages are presented, analyzing the similarities in their meanings, with notes on their etymology and ways of borrowing. The dictionary is divided into three parts, as the separate sections correspond to separate fragments of the model of the world:
1) Outside world (everything outside the home, ie beyond the threshold): nature (surface, water bodies, vegetation and animals) and culture (construction, urban areas, arable land);
2) Inner world (everything in the home to the threshold): home design, utensils, clothing, food, tools, personal and other accessories;
3) Man (consciousness and psyche; social relations): man's relations with himself, with nature and culture (internal qualities, body parts, ethnicities, professions, kinship; ideas, moods, behavior, social relations).
The aim of the dictionary is to create the core of a corpus of common Balkan lexemes related to material culture in the Balkans, dealing also with the theoretical and methodological problems involved.
