Ora Matushansky, « Two BAP violations in Russian verbal stress », HAL SHS (Sciences de l’Homme et de la Société), ID : 10670/1.844b7a...
The Basic Accentuation Principle of Russian (Kiparsky and Halle 1977), associating main stress with the leftmost accent, appears to be violated with two pre-accenting morphemes: the infinitive and the passive past participle (PPP) suffixes: stress is final instead of pre-suffixal. I will first demonstrate that the PPP suffix is unaccentable, and then show that this violation is resolved if the notion of an unaccentable morpheme is also extended to roots.
