Kashubian word stress and its variability
Kashubian, an understudied Slavic language spoken in Northern Poland, is unique among West Slavic languages for having lexical (free) word stress. In its northern varieties, stress exhibits considerable variability. This study presents results of an acoustic analysis of stress correlates in Northern Kashubian, exploiting stress placement variability. Furthermore, a phonological model accounting for the variability, based on the Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) framework, will be proposed. (The model was developed in collaboration with Maria Bolek.)
