The author presents four dialectal morphological variables that are undergoing dierent rates of change in the C Ï akavian dialect under the in¯uence of standard Croatian (Cr.). The conclusion is that investigation into morphological variation reveals and brings up interesting questions about degrees of stigmatization, saliency, the rate and process of accommodation, and the spread of linguistic change through grammatical categories. In addition, it points to the usefulness of quantitative analysis on the morphological level and thus contributes to the general theory of linguistic change.
