Neutralization of the long and short a in the southčakavian insular dialect

Domagoj Vidović
Ivana Kurtović

Abstract

The paper deals with the lengthened short vowel a, which occurs in the position of the original short a, and a derived from the semivowel on which the accent is shifted from the last syllable. The authors consider this lengthened a as an allophone of the short phoneme a. They also suggest different notation for the acute occurring on that allophone.
