Summary/Abstract: As emphasized in the preceding article, Standard Croatian has accepted the jekavian speech of Dubrovnik, though some details reveal continuing vacillation. One of these features is the occurrence of both je and e after the consonant group ending in r. The author points out this vacillation in the Croatian norm and practice, emphasizing that in neither of them e had been the only choice.
