This article sheds light on the dialectal character of Lainšček's lyric poems published in the collections Nigdar nèboš znala (2007), Lübezen (2014) and Komi de ravnica bejla/Komu bo ravnica bela (2019), as well as on their versions in standard Slovene. Even though dialectal prose and poetry constitute only a marginal part of Lainšček's creative oeuvre, they are a convincing proof that texts written in dialect can possess a high degree of literary and aesthetic value.
