There have been few remarks made on the diachronic aspect of the stress contour of those simplexes, and I will argue that the ‘primary-secondary’ stress pattern of those words has been historically developed from the ‘weak-primary’ pattern which those simplex words originally had as the result of accent change based on the following three grounds: i) documented records found in the literature and several dictionaries compiled around the late 18th and 19th centuries; ii) data from other Scandinavian dialects; iii) free variations of the two stress patterns, ‘primary-secondary’ and ‘weak-primary’, found in the present-day Danish. From the above argument, it will be concluded that all of those simplex words are etymologically loanwords with ‘weak-primary’ stress pattern, and their original primary stress is supposed to have moved to the initial syllable in accordance with the native Nordic/Germanic stress pattern; thus, the secondary stress in the present stress pattern is a surviving trace of the primary stress in an archaic ‘weak-primary’ pattern., 研究報告}, pages = {109--120}, title = {デンマーク語における副次強勢の起源について}, volume = {64}, year = {2015}, yomi = {ミムラ, タツユキ} }
