Phonetic evidence for the development of the “acute” tone in Slavic
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper attempts to give a phonetic reconstruction of the processes surrounding the loss of the glottal stop as the reflex of the inherited Proto-Slavic acute. With support from typological evidence and phonetic analysis, it is claimed that the variation in modern Slavic reflexes of the acute results from differing outcomes of the disappearance of the glottal stop: metathesis, straightforward loss, and laryngealization. ∗ An earlier version of this paper was presented at the European Science Foundation Tone and Intonation in Europe (TIE) workshop “Typology of Tone and Intonation,” Cascais, Portugal, 2 April 2004.
