Work has begun on a dictionary of Moravian Croatian, which is the most western branch of the Burgenland Croatians. Mijo Loncaric, a linguist in Zagreb, the started the project. Jozo Lavicka, a Moravian Croatian living in Vienna will be assisting the project. The Moravian Croatian dictionary is planned to be completed within three years. The Moravian Croatian Dictionary will be sponsored by the Institute for the Croatian Language and Linguistics in Zagreb, and will be printed in cooperation with institutions in the Czech Republic. Historian Dragutin Pavlicevic wrote a monograph about the Moravian Croatians, who lived in three villages in southern Moravia [in the Czech Republic] until 1948, when they were scattered throught the Czech Republic by the Communists
