Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the (up until now barely discussed in the literature) spread of the ending –i in e–stems (from forms like majki ‘mothers’ or Dalmatinki ‘Dalmatians’ with a cluster–ending stem to forms like baki ‘grandmothers’ or sezoni ‘seasons’) in modern standard or standard–like Štokavian. Examples of such genitival forms are adduced from living modern language (mostly from the internet) and the process is analyzed historically and structurally.
