Summary

This paper describes the development of the Proto-Slavic ū-declension. The ū-declension became productive at a certain stage of Proto-Slavic and came to include many loanwords. It will be argued in this paper that the productivity started as a phonological development. The earliest – mainly, but not exclusively, Germanic – loanwords show a distribution according to which the words with a stem-final velar became ū-stems, while words with stems ending in other consonants became ā/-stems. At a later stage of Proto-Slavic, the ū-declension became productive for loanwords from other languages as well, and analogously came to include many other words, especially for plants and containers. The spread of the ū-declension is exemplified on the basis of four sets of data: 1.) the Proto-Slavic feminine ā/jā-stem and ū-stem loanwords in Germanic (Pronk-Tiethoff 2013), 2.) Germanic and German loanwords in Proto-Slavic and post-Proto-Slavic (Knutsson 1929), 3.) Latin and early Romance loanwords in Proto-Slavic and Croatian (Matasović 2011) and 4.) the ū-stems in Polabian, which mainly consist of (Low) German loanwords (Polanski/Sehnert 1967).
