 abstract  This paper examines the factors influencing stress-placement before the -able suffix. These include the the status of the stem (free or bound), a full (tertiary-stressed) vowel at the end of a stem, syncope, gliding, and trisyllabic shortening. Based on corpus evidence, I argue that the treatment of -able either as a categorically stress-neutral suffix or as a categorically stress-placing suffix is untenable.
