Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the pronunciation of Bulgarian nomina habitatorum as well as of some other types of nouns denoting persons in which different stress patterns are observed. The study is based on a selection of words from the current Official Spelling Dictionary. Some of the nouns under discussion show variation in the position of the stress, which gives rise to normative issues. The authors offer conclusions regarding the tendency for a second stress to occur in one-word compounds attested in the studied material.
