Younger Ikavian dialect
Western Ikavian dialect, also called Bosnian-Dalmatian dialect, is a subdialect of Shtokavian Serbo-Croatian spoken in Croatia in the Dalmatian Hinterland and in Bosnia and Herzegovina west of the river Bosna and Neretva.[1][2]
There are also isolated pockets where this dialect is spoken – small area south of Novi Vinodolski, Lika hinterland, the southern Croatian islands of Šolta, Brač, Hvar and Korčula and in central Slavonia.[1]
It is further divided into Ikvian Šćakavian and Ikavian Štakavian.[2]
