Bulgarian
Etymology
From Proto-Slavic*junь̀cь(“youth”). It is possible for the accent to shift from the second to the first syllable, for reasons unexplained.
Sources disagree on which syllable should be stressed: Rečnik na bǎlgarskija ezik maintains it be the first, whereas Bǎlgarski tǎlkoven rečnik posits the second, which also appears to accord with the Proto-Slavic etymon *junь̀cь.
Declension
Although in the singular forms, either the first or second syllable may be stressed, in the (non-count) plural, it is always the second.
