ACCENT VARIATION OF ADVERBS IN STANDARD UKRAINIAN: A DIACHRONIC APPROACH

The article elucidates the accent variation of adverbs in Standard Ukrainian of the 19th-21st c. with special attention to their origin and usage history. The author demonstrates that some composite adverbs have two accent variants due to century-old differences in their accentuation in the West and East variants of Standard Ukrainian. Taking into account similar and different features of some adverbs’ accentuation in East and West Ukrainian, she shows how these differences were registered in 19th c. dictionaries, and, occasionally, in 18th с. accented texts as well as 17th c. dictionaries. Dialect texts, too, demonstrate various stages of dual accentuation emergence in oral speech. Her analysis of T. Shevchenko’s poems determined that in his idiolect, adverb accentuation prevails of his native Middle-Dnieper dialect. The author discusses how groups of adverbs with variant prefix/root stress were treated by lexicographers in the 2nd half of the 20th c.–the early 21st c. In 19th c. dictionaries, they mostly have a root stress, and rarely a stress on the prefix на- or dual accentuation. The recessive prefix stress is shown to be historically determined. Due to contemporary usage, linguists’ opinions, and personal preferences and uncertainties of pronouncing and monolingual dictionaries compilers, 20th -21st dictionaries are not always consistent in registering accent variants of some adverbs. Now some adverbs lack fixed accentuation. The author proves that accent variants of Modern Standard Ukrainian adverbs are results of lengthy historic evolution featuring both dialect interaction and analogy influence.
