    Annotation:

    I wish to present some comments on the position of stress in the Zyryan word in neutral surroundings, i.e. when it is unaffected by, for example, sentential stress. First thought, I shall briefly consider extant evidence of word stress placement in the past, after which I shall go on to describe some experiments to determine the extent to which stress alights on the initial syllable in Zyryan nowadays and the results. I shall also make brief mention of the possible acoustical composition of the language.
