the history of english old english phonetic system outline oe accentuation. the system of oe vowels. the system of oe consonants. oe accentuation the peculiarity of oe accentuation was the same as in other germanic languages – the principal “dynamic” or “force” stress fell on the root syllable of the word. word stress was fixed in the sense that it did not shift in form-building: it remained on the same syllable in different forms of the word. it should be noted that the suffixes always remained unstressed. the principal stress remained on the root when a prefix was added. with the stress falling on the root syllable, the unstressed vowel underwent the process of weakening and disappearing. the system of oe vowels according to the position of the vocal organs front and back vowels were distinguished in oe. distinctions were also made as to the nearness of the tongue to …

e combinative sound changes there was one with far reaching effects – front mutation, or i-mutation. this was a series of changes of vowels which took place when there was i, ī, j in the following syllable. i, ī disappeared or changed into e, but it’s original presence can be established by examining the cognate words in other languages. it was a kind of assimilation: the effected vowel being moved to the place of articulation nearer to that of the following vowel, either ī or i, or j. it is impossible to state the exact time of i-mutation. still taking into consideration the fact that no traces of i-mutation could be found in gothic texts (4th c. ad), but its results were reflected in the earliest oe texts (7th c. ad). thus, we may suppose that i-mutation might have taken place in the period between 4-7 centuries. if we take …
