NOTES ON THE ACCENTUATION OF KAŠIĆ'S GRAMMAR

Mate Kapović

Abstract

The paper deals with the accentual system of the grammar of Bartol Kašić. It is claimed that it is not possible to draw the conclusion from Kašić's notation that his dialect had 3 accents. Kašić's accentual notation is discussed, with special attention given to the "artificial" accentual retraction in gláva type words. Various interesting features of Kašić's accentuation are adduced: first of all, archaisms, but innovations as well. The featuresof special interest are: Kašić's forms govoru, hoyu in the present of a. p. c and the old accentuation of the infinitives like mocchìchiu which is now non-existant in Čakavian. Kašić's accentual system is compared with the contemporary Pag accentuation as well with the contemporary accentuation of other Croatian dialects.
