Abstract

The paper analyzes the accentual types of nouns in the dialect of Novalja on the island of Pag, based on the author’s own field research. Nouns are divided into accentual types with regard to the place and type of the accent (and subtypes with respect to the existence of unstressed length and various degrees of innovation): type a, with a fixed accent on a vowel within the word stem; b) type b, with an accent on the grammatical ending in most or all forms; and type c, with an accent that alternates between the initial syllable of the stem and the grammatical ending.

Keywords
