Slovenes

According to the last Austro-Hungarian census of 1911, more than 73% of the population of the suburb were of Slovene ethnicity.^[1] After the annexation to Italy in 1920, the percentage of Slovene speakers fell significantly; however, Barcola is still an important center of the Slovene minority in Italy. Traditionally, the Karst dialect of Slovene has been spoken in Barcola, differently from most other ethnic Slovene villages around Trieste, where the Inner Carniolan dialect is spoken. It is known as Barkovlje in Slovene.
