The Brda dialect (Slovene: briško narečje[ˈbɾíːʃkɔnaˈɾéːt͡ʃjɛ],[1]briščina[2]), or Gorizia Hills dialect, is a Slovene dialect spoken in the Gorizia Hills in Slovenia and Italy. It is known for extreme vowel reduction in final position. It borders the Natisone Valley dialect to the north and the Karst dialect to the east, and Friulian to the west. The dialect belongs to the Littoral dialect group, and it evolved from Venetian–Karst dialect base.[3][4]
It is spoken in a territory with around 6,000 Slovene speakers, most of whom have a degree of knowledge of the dialect.
