The present study from the field of comparative Indo-European linguistics deals with the so-called amphikinetic accent and ablaut class of athematic nouns in Proto-Indo-European.

On the basis of selected amphikinetic compounded and simple nouns it is investigated which factors in each case lead to the development of the amphikinetic ablaut pattern.

Produktbeschreibung
The present study from the field of comparative Indo-European linguistics deals with the so-called amphikinetic accent and ablaut class of athematic nouns in Proto-Indo-European. Its focus lies on secondary amphikinetic formations-that is, on such amphikinetic stems that are derived from other nominal stems by means of non-suffixing (so-called "internal") derivation. On the basis of selected amphikinetic compounded and simple nouns it is investigated which factors in each case lead to the development of the amphikinetic ablaut pattern. As is demonstrated, the accent or, more precisely, a shift of accent plays a significant role in the development of some secondary amphikinetic stems. This result also strengthens the widely held view that ablaut in Proto-Indo-European was-at least partly-a phenomenon caused by the (shift of) accent.
