The paper deals with the alleged supposition of three Croatian phoneticians that two short accents neutralize in the Croatian language. The author proves these claims to be completely false by analyzing their arguments. The sociophonetic research of these phonetcicans is criticized as irrelevant and a priori impossible to prove the point, and their arguments of finding evidence for the neutralization in Benešić's dictionary are also proved false. The author concludes that there is no evidence for the tendency of the neutralization of short accents in Štokavian Croatian dialects.Downloads
