@article{Duma_2022, title={Affrikatization *t’, *d’ > *ć, *ʒ’ in Western Pomerania in local and field names}, volume={24}, url={https://czasopisma.uwm.edu.pl/index.php/pj/article/view/7593}, DOI={10.31648/pj.7593}, abstractNote={<p>The article analyses the scope of the process of affricatization *t’, *d’ > *ć, *ʒ’ in Western<br />Pomerania. Its gradual disappearance towards the west was confirmed – higher for the<br />former *d’, smaller for the former *t’. In the old Slavic dialects of West Pomerania, as well<br />as in the old Slavic dialects of Mecklenburg, East Holstein or in the dialect of Połabian<br />Drzewians, there is no such affricatization in most local and field names, i.e. *t’ > t, *d’ > d.<br />This may confirm the loss of accommodative pronunciation in these dialects. The lack<br />of accommodative pronunciation before the vowels of the front row typologically brings<br />these dialects closer to the following dialects and languages: Upper Sorbian, Czech and<br />Slovak as well as the South Slavic languages. It is also partially similar the multiple<br />of consonants before *e, *ě and *i in Ukrainian.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Prace Językoznawcze}, author={Duma, Jerzy}, year={2022}, month={Mar.}, pages={5–21} }
