In he sp ing o 2020, I was asked o do a lo o esea ch in a ious posi ions.
Th ee o he ou speake s emphasize he accen , bu no qui e consis en ly
(excep ions occu ). Acco ding o he abundance o examples, he l is mainly
ha dened in he speech o Šlie_V_1920, bu in he wo ds i is aised, no aised,
aised and so ened. The l is ha dened all he ime.
As in he case o he o e ejec ion, he impo ance o he gene a ion is again
highligh ed: i should be no ed ha he pe son bo n in 1951 did no ecei e he
o e a all, and he pe son bo n in 1954 ecei ed i only once.
The ha dening o he p ebalsium is mapped in se e al 1982 LKA "Phone ics"
maps. He e is No. 15 […] he s one e, ei a e he balcony l (e.g., ligh s, ligh s); See

was main ained in […] Šlienã oje (Má gininkų (LKA553) poin ) which is ha de
han in Rušiškės (LKA536).
Ano he case o an i-balance ha dening is discussed in he 1982 LKA "Phone ics" map
No. 72 (see Fig. 12). Unlike he map No. 15 (Fig. 11), i eco ds he s one en po l (LKA II 8889).
In 1982, appa en ha dening was mapped on bo h banks, bu Šliena à (Má gininkų

The ma e ial is based on he 1982 LKA "Phone ics" maps No. 15 and No. 28; i is
