• The article discusses the origin of the nominal forms ending in -ih [iχ] of the type medih 'doctor' and lampadarih 'chandelier' in dialectal Slovenian on the Slovenian-Friulian language boundary. Regarding their origin, these forms represent loanwords from Friulian, where they typically end in -i (cf. Friul. mildi 'doctor', lampadari 'chandelier'), reflecting their original Romance pre-forms medicu(m) and lampadāriu(m). The contribution tries to account for the presence of the voiceless velar fricative h [χ] in both groups of borrowings, taking into consideration the linguistic history of both Friulian and Slovenian. While the voiceless velar fricative χ in the medih-type can most probably be explained by assuming a more archaic phonetic reflex of the original medicu(m) in Old Friulian, the origin ofg in the lampadarih-type seems to be the result of analogical processes in the linguistic history of Slovenian.
