The Comparison of Phonological Terminology in Klaić’s Orthographic Manuals with other Orthographic Manuals

Abstract

The author analyses phonological terminology used in two orthographic manuals written by Adolf Bratoljub Klaić (Koriensko pisanje written in 1942 and Hrvatski pravopis written in 1944 with Franjo Cipra). His terminology is compared with the terminology used in orthographic manuals which preceded Klaić’s manual (Boranić 1941; Cipra, Guberina and Krstić 1941, reprint 1998) as well as with the terminology used in modern Croatian orthographic manuals (Babić, Finka, Moguš 1971; Anić, Silić 1986; Babić, Finka, Moguš 1996; Anić, Silić 2001; Badurina, Marković, Mićanović 2007; Babić, Moguš 2010; Jozić, Željko (ed.) 2013). Special focus is on the problems of sound change terminology. The author lists all sound changes mentioned in Klaić’s manuals, analyses the terms used to denote them as well as their definitions.
