Stress

[elizabeth ginzburg]

Vykhodtsy s Ukrainy (zhivuschie v Amerike, v osobennosti!) i seichas
govoriat  pOnjala, a v derevne pod Moskvoi - dazhe ponjAl!
Neither the former nor the latter I believe would be a reason
to teach our students such  forms!
My granparents, though, used only the pOnjala form (they were from
a "mestechko").
In fact, only my grandparents were the people from who I heard this pOnjala. but in one village I did hear ponjalA- ponJAl.
