In terms I can understand:
*vidová, *vídovoN -> (jerification)
*vIdová, *vídovoN -> (regularization)
*vIdová, *vIdóvoN
which means that after i -> I, is jerified, it is no longer
syllable-forming, and since there is thus no longer a syllable in the
nominative corresponding to the one where the accusative places the
stress, the whole paradigm gets too strange, so stress in the
accusative is moved to the next syllable? Does that make sense?
BTW what does this a. p. correspond to in PIE?
