The Kranjska Gora subdialect (,Smole, Vera. 1998. "Slovenska narečja." Enciklopedija Slovenije vol. 12, pp. 1–5. Ljubljana: Mladinska knjiga, p. 2. kranjskogorsko podnarečje) is a Slovene subdialect of the Gail Valley dialect in the Carinthian dialect group. It was included among the Carinthian dialects by Tine Logar and Jakob Rigler (sl) in contrast to its earlier classification by Fran Ramovš as an Upper Carniolan dialect.Toporišič, Jože. 1994.
