Horvatsko-slavonska slovnica za po？etnike by Lavoslav Firholcer

Sa？etak Lavoslav Firholcer published Horvatsko-slavonska slovnica za po？etnike (grammar for beginners) in Vara？din in 1847. The grammar is divided into four big parts: pravo？itanje (orthoepy), pravopis (orthography), rě？oizpitivanje (morphology), rě？oslaganje (syntaxes) and glasoudaranje (prosody), and all parts are in the question-and-answer form. This grammar of the Croatian language contains 107 pages of description of the Croatian language, 21 pages of practise reading skills, a list of handwritten and typewritten Cyrillic and Latinic letters, while the last four pages contain texts in Serbian written in the Cyrillic script and in the Latinic script. This paper analyses contents of grammar and compares them with the linguistic concepts of the Zagreb School of Philology and two grammars which had influenced on Lavoslav Firholcer’s grammar – Osnova slovnice slavjenske narě？ja ilirskoga from 1836 by Vjekoslav Babuki？ and especially Temelji ilirskoga i latinskoga jezika za po？etnike from 1839 by Antun Ma？urani？
