accentuation of iiidiciolnm in the clausula noti iudicioli est nostri 

 (II. 119. 30 and 146. 11), which is a distinct vulgarism. ^ But he ac- 

 cents malleolus on the antepenult (I. 244. 14; II. 99.11), and also 

 Pute'olos (II. 147. 9). 



The evidence for the accentuation of words borrowed from other 

 languages, which has heretofore been somewhat scanty, is con- 

 siderably increased by the material which we get from Ammianus, 

 who often employs foreign words in the clausula. Far the greater 

 part of these words is derived from the Greek, as we should ex- 

 pect, or from some other language through the mediation of the 

 Greek. Such words are not affected by the penultimate law, but 

 they bear an accent derived from the Greek. 



In support of this statement I shall adduce first a list of words 

 borrowed from the Greek or through the Greek, which according 

 to the penultimate law should be accented on the penult, but are 

 accented by Ammianus on the antepenult.
