Beyond the well-known vowel interactions that took place in the whole Coun-try of Soule (i.e., the changes conventionally noted as [e + a > ia], [o + a > ua] & [ü + a > ia]), more recently other changes usually termed as vowel assimilations started; they can be formu-lated in a very simplified way as [í + a > í] & [ú + a > ú]. Today, these secondary changes are one of the most remarkable intradialectal differences within Souletin Basque. This paper focuses on the chronology of Souletin vowel assimilations. Firstly, I propose an overview on what is known about the topic (§ 1); secondly, I bring some evidence from old Souletin texts (§ 2), and analyze some data closer to the present-day language (§ 3). Then I will deal with the chronology and spreading of vowel assimilations (§ 4), and draft some conclusions (§ 5).
Zuberoa osoan obratu ziren bokalen arteko elkarreraginez harago (hots, konbentzio ordinarioan [e + a > ia], [o + a > ua] & [ü + a > ia] arauetan adierazten direnak), une batetik ai-tzina bokal asimilazio deitu ohi diren aldaketa berriagoak abiatu ziren, arras modu sinplifikatuan [í + a > í] & [ú + a > ú] bezala formula daitezkeenak. Egun, aldaketa bigarrendar horiek zubere-raren barneko desberdintasun markagarrienetarik dira, beharbada ezaugarri intradialektal nagu-sia. Lan honek Zuberoako bokal asimilazioen kronologia du jomuga. Gaiaz dakiguna bildurik (§ 1), Zuberoako testu zaharren lekukotza ekarriko dugu (§ 2), eta egungo hizkuntzatik hurbil diren dauak aztertuko ditugu (§ 3). Ondoren, asimilazio bokalikoen kronologiaz eta hedaduraz arituko gara (§ 4), ondorio batera etortzeko (§ 5).
