Croatian grammars before the 20th century[edit]

Year Author Work Notes
1604 Bartol Kašić Institutionum linguae illyricae libri duo The first complete Croatian grammar describing 'Illyrian', a supradialectal form of Ikavian Štokavian with Čakavian admixture. Published in Rome in 2 volumes, written in Latin. Served as a basis for later grammarians up to Appendini.
1639 Rajmund Zamanja Nauk za dobro pisati latinskijem slovima riječi jezika slovinskoga
(How to spell slavic words in Latin characters)
(complicated spelling solutions)
1649 Jakov Mikalja Grammatika talianska ukratko illi kratak nauk za naucitti latinski
(A short Italian grammar or short instructions on how to master Latin)
Loreto – Ancona 1649–1651. An Italian grammar, written in the language which is the ancestor of Croatian (also containing a dictionary). Has some bits and pieces on Croatian too.
1665 Juraj Križanić Gramatíčno iskazánje ob rúskom jezíku
(A grammatical outline of the Russian language)
MS., Tobolsk, 1665. Published: Moscow 1848, Zagreb 1984.. An attempt to write Pan-Slavic grammar based on the data of all the Slavic languages which were known to the author. Characteristics of one of the Croatian literary languages (the so-called ozaljaski književni krug, Ozalj literary circle) were marked, that was characterised by the mixture of Čakavian, Kajkavian and Štokavian traits, so this grammar can be considered a codification of that literary idiom.
1713 Lovro Šitović Grammatica Latino-Illyrica Venice 17131, 17422, 17823. Republished: Ljubuški – Zagreb – Sarajevo 2003.
1728 Ardelio della Bella Instruzioni grammaticali della lingua illirica In his Dizionario italiano, latino, ilirico, written in Italian, published in Venice, 17281, Dubrovnik, 17852; as a standalone work: Principi elemetari della grammatica illirica, Dubrovnik, 18373; republished in Zagreb, 2006. Grammar is generally based on Kašić's, but has introduced several improvements. The distinction is made between the definite and indefinite adjectives, as well as the declension of adjectives and the pronouns and numerals. Della Bella tries to achieve a unified orthography, and provides marks of three types of accents (acute, grave and circumflex), and rules governing their distribution.
