PROSODIC VARIANTS IN ANTHROPONYMY

Živko Bjelanović ; Split

Sažetak

In shaping the semantic side of anthroponyms, accent and quantity are not merely concomitant elements to the word-forming morpheme. Just as a meliorative or a pejorative can be derived through the use of a suffix with positive connotation or one with negative connotation, so also one or another prosodeme can give opposing semantic values to anthroponymic lexemes. The article cites examples like Dȕjica, Đȍkica, Đȕrica, Jȁndrica, Jȍvica as hypocoristics and Dújica, Đókica, Đúrica, Jándrica, Jóvica as pejoratives. Likewise the anthroponymic minimal pairs of feminine names Đȕkica/Đúkica, Jȁgica/Jágica and Jèkĩna/Jèkina, Màndĩna/Màndina etc. have opposite meanings
