Map Description:
The realization of Polish nasal vowels is associated with extensive variation. One of the most common processes heard in contemporary speech is the decomposition of nasals. This map presents the distribution of several decomposed variants of the front and back nasal vowels. Specifically, it maps the decomposition of the front nasal into /en/ and /ej/ before spirants, and into /em/ word-finally. Additionally, it presents areas where the back nasal is decomposed word-finally only in nouns, adjectives, pronouns, and numerals, as well as areas where it is also decomposed word-finally in verbs.
