Abstract

Food, as one of the most important components of human existence, in addition to its primary function associated with satisfying hunger, is also essential element of culture and language – as evidenced by the numerous linguistic studies of that segment of the Polish vocabulary. The aim of this paper is to present and discuss selected Silesian collocations where the main component belongs to the wide category of cooking, understood as ready meals, the products of cookery or the entire process of preparing the food. Discussed idioms may include a component, which is the name of a specific dish, its ingredients, beverages, cookware or activities related to the preparation of dishes. The main purpose of this article is to show some segment of reality settled in dialectal phraseology and to identify functions performed by the expressive compounds containing in its composition the culinary names.
