Abstract
The paper analyses the phonetic and stress system of the Maramures dialect of the Ukrainian language spoken in the village of Rona de Sus in Romania. The study is based on the material gathered during a fieldwork expedition in 2002. The paper focuses on the development of Proto-Slavic nominal and verbal stress paradigms a, b, and c as well as that of nominal stress paradigm d in the dialect which has retained free stress. Phonetic vowel lengths found in the analysed dialect can be considered quite rare-maybe a unique phenomenon in Ukrainian dialects. In the study special emphasis is laid on the connection of these phonetic vowel lengths to Proto-Slavic intonations.
