Abstract
In the modern dialect of the Khislavichsky district of the Smolensk region, both dialectal features and features of the Russian standard language are observed, the latter actively permeating the dialectal speech over the past decades. we attempt to trace the dynamics of the development of this dialect with the help of quantitative methods which make it possible to establish the frequency of distinctive dialectal features in the spontaneous speech of individual speakers. The study establishes a list of relevant dialectal differences, calculates the proportion of dialectal features in seven idiolects, and creates linguistic profiles of these idiolects presented in the form of radial diagrams. Based on the analysis of these linguistic profiles, three degrees of preservation of the dialect are established, which do not depend on whether the informants belong to the older or younger generation. It is also noted that morphological features are lost first, followed by lexicalized phonological ones.
