Two BAP violations in Russian verbal stress
Résumé
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.
