- A statement, propounded by the Danish philologist Karl Verner in 1875, which explains certain apparent exceptions to Grimm's law by the original position of the accent.

Similarly s either remained unchanged, or it became z and later r. Example: Skt. sapt'e`pta, Gothic sibun (seven). Examples in English are dead by the side of death, to rise and to rear.
