GVS. problems concerning its periodization, causes & directions. 1 Periodizatio n . - disputable chron frame. Martinet & Trnka- 12-13cc when the lengths of vowels lost their phonemic value & began to be positionally conditioned. But no proofs of this assumption. Wyld analyzed writings of 14,15,16 c of low-educated ppl, close to phonetic spelling. a GVS 14-16c. Rastorguev a (convincing) -14-18, some spelling changes indicated the beginning. 2 Reasons - suppositions. Horn & Lehnert- caused by a peculiar way of pronun-n of vowels. Pronun in a high tone contributed to its narrower articulation. Tried to prove-referred to similar phonetic facts of the ModE. But 4 long vowels during the GVS broke into the dipht-s (unanalyzed). Plotki n - connected the results of the GVS 1) with the loss of the phonemic character of length of vowels and, 2) with the development of a great # of monosyl wrds in MidE which appeared after the loss of the final unstressed vowels. a appeared pairs of wrds differed only in the length of the root vowel: rod/o/- rod/open o :/. The same spelling a to overcome such ambiguous cases, the lang began to develop a new kind of opposition, not b/w long & short monopht-s, but b/wa short monopht & dipht. 3.Direction - which vowels first involved-narrowest, widest? 2 theories- push-chain ' (started with the widest a:, open o:,?:. Every step of their narrowing pushed the neighboring vowel to a higher position in order to avoid coincidence. Vowels i :, u: (had nothing to narrow into) developed into the dipht-s ai, au.) and ' drag-chain' (with the 2 narrowest vowels whic...
