In a short article in Zeitschriftu für Balkanologie 1989, the late Professor Eric P. Hamp (1920–2019) sketched an idea about Yugoslavia as a „crossroads of Sprachbünde“. These included the Carpathian, Pannonian, Eastern Alpine, Dalmatian Adriatic, Illyrian, West Middle Balkans, and the Aegean zones as more focused and precise subzones of contact change in addition to the more familiar Balkan Sprachbund. In the paper are treated some parallels between two peripheral South Slavic zones: one at the intersection of Slovene, Croatian, German, and Hungarian (Hamp’s Pannonian Sprachbund) and the other at the intersection of Montenegrin and Albanian (which Hamp preferred not to define, though he hinted that it might fit into his as yet vaguely identified „Illyrian“ Sprachbund). Hamp notes the feature of free distribution of vowel length in the words as a Pannonian Sprachbund feature as a „natural bridge to Czech and Slovak“. Here we shall discuss the extent to which such features are the result of inherited structural tendencies and how much to the dynamics of contact.
