摘要：Within the Croatian language studies, Dalibor Brozović’s periodization of the history of the Croatian literary language prevails in use. Some Croatian linguists question the dating of the beginning of the standardization process in the Croatian language, but they do not question the definition of periods and their respective characteristics. The paper tries: first, to solve some issues of the terminology of standardology in the Croatian language studies; second, to offer reperiodization of the history of the Croatian literary language and third, to compare that reperiodization to the periodization of other European literary languages.
