description | The paper discusses the evolutive aspects of short “jat” following the sonant
r usage during the formation of the modern Serbian literary language and its
treatment in the Serbo-Croatistic and the Serbistic descriptive and normative
literature. In addition to the basic issue of the distribution of the short
“jat’s” substituent following the sonant r in dialects of Montenegro,
particularly in the native dialect of Vuk Karadžić’s ancestors, the author
also addresses the question related to the mechanisms that cause short “jat”
following the sonant r in ijekavian dialects to be reduced sometimes to e,
and sometimes to je. Substitution of short “jat” following the sonant r in
Jezera-Šarani dialect had important evolution from the times of “classical
Vukovian ijekavism”. In this dialect, forms with rje do not occur, except in
the word starješina. Here, r and j remained in the same syllable, which set
the stage for iotization and depalatalization. The analysis of the paper
describes the situation in Jezera-Šarani dialect as well as the situation in
other Montenegrian dialects of the older and newer Eastern-Herzegovian type.
The author as well takes into consideration that our Pravopis has already
disregarded the Vukovian tradition with omitting j that follows sonant r in
the examples pogreška and greška. In order to eliminate the disunity, the
author concludes that the status of the group re should not be questioned
from the aspect of literary language standards. |
