     Sad smo pristali na drugom kraju jezera.

     Now we had moored on the other side of the lake.

   • 16th century, Mavro Vetranić Čavčić, “Pelegrin”, in I. A. Kaznačić, editor, Pjesme Mavra Vetranića Čavčića: Dio II. (Stari pisci hrvatski)‎, Zagreb: Jugoslavenska akademija znanosti i umjetnosti, published 1872, page 143, line 2348:

   • 1495, Bernardinus Spalatensis , edited by Tomo Maretić, Vulgarizacio dalmatica epistolarum & euangeliorum ‎, Zagreb: JAZU, published 1885, page 160 (orig. 85a):

     Od vika odrejena jesam i od starih pri nego zemļa biše. Ne bihu jošće ni jezera, a ja jure začata bih, ni bihu jošće vrutki vodeni protekli ni se jošće gore težkom veličinom umistile bihu, pri sfih vrhof ja se rojah.

     I was set up from euerlaſting, from the beginning, or euer the earth was. When there were no depthes, I was brought forth : when there were no fountaines abounding with water. Before the mountaines were ſettled : before the hilles, was I brought foorth: While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the higheſt part of the duſt of the world.

Forms with ◌̏ can have the non-weakened shift to the proclitic: nȁ jezero.^[2][3][4] The rule is however rarely mentioned in normative manuals and may be unstable,^[5] and the word can be reclassified into the paradigm with immobile stem stress (likely with weakened shift):

• jezeranin
• jezerište (Štokavian, Čakavian) / jezerišče (Kajkavian)
• jezeriti se
• jezerkinja

• Varaždin Kaykavian: Nsg jẹ̏zȩro (IPA^(key): /ˈjezɜro/), Gsg jẹ̏zȩra, Npl jẹ̏zȩra, Gpl jẹ̏zȩrah^[7]
• Novi Vinodolski Chakavian: Nsg jȅzero, Npl jȅzera, Gpl jȅzēr/jezẽr^[8]

From Hungarian ezer (thousand), from an Iranian language, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰéslom (thousand). The final -o is added by analogy to jezero (lake).^[11] Rare variant without the -o (jȅzer) is noted by RSANU (1973:698).

• IPA^(key): /jêzero/
• Hyphenation: je‧ze‧ro

jȅzero n (Cyrillic spelling је̏зеро)

1. (archaic) thousand; a great number

   Synonyms: tisuća, hiljada

   • 1578, Antol Vramecz, Kronika vezda znovich zpravliena kratka szlouenzkim iezikom‎, Lublana: po Iuane Manline, page 53 verso:

   • 1894, Evgenij Kumičić, Urota zrinsko-frankopanska‎, Zagreb: Bulaja naklada, published 2020, page 231:

   • 1936, Miroslav Krleža, “Planetarijom”, in Balade Petrice Kerempuha (Sabrana djela Miroslava Krleže), Sarajevo / Zagreb: NIŠRO "Oslobođenje" / IKRO "Mladost", published 1982, page 115:

     Kajkavska reč Kaj vre jezer let klopoče.

     The Kaykavian word Kay already for a thousand years has been rattling.

Neo-Shtokavian accent in the table is based on Klaić (1987:630) and RSANU (1973:699) which do not imply a mobile paradigm; ARj (1897:638) does not mark the accent. The plural accent might also be the same as in meaning 'lake' (Npl jezèra, etc.).
