It is sheltered by the Izarraitz massif and crossed by the Urola river, connecting the municipalities of Azkoitia and Azpeitia.

De La Zona Occidental De Gipuzkoa
Observaciones acerca del acento de la zona occidental de Gipuzkoa JOSE IGNACIO HUALDE (University ofIllinois) Abstract This paper examines the parameters of variation found in the accentual systems of western Guipuscoa. This area includes varieties with very different accentual systems ranging from some which are fundamentally identical to southwestern Biscayan to others that are more akin to the central Biscayan system to yet others with only very limited accentual contrasts. o. Introducci6n En este artIculo se examina el sistema de acentuaci6n utilizado en una zona occidental de Gipuzkoa que comprende las localidades de Azpeitia, Azkoitia, Errezil (Regil), Bergara y Eibar; esto es, tanto en areas de Gipuzkoa que L. L. Bonaparte clasifico como de dialecto vizcaIno (Bergara, Eibar),como en otras colindantes consi deradas como pertenecientes al dialecto guipuzcoano. 1 El proposito de est:e trabajo es ayudar a completar nuestro conocimiento acerca de los sistemas ace.ntuales vascos de tipo occidental 0 vizcaIno-guipuzcoano.2 En el area examinada en este artIculo no hay uniformidad en cuanto a los hechos acentuales. De hecho, las diferencias de acentuaci6n parecen encontrarse entre las primeras que saltan a la vista entre hablas de localidades vecinas de esta zona, segun nota Altuna (1979) para Azpeitia y Azkoitia y Laspiur (1979) para Eibar y Bergara. Un hecho interesante y que requiere explicaci6n desde un punto de vista diacr6nico es que encontramos coincidencias notables entre 10s hechos acentuales de algunas hablas de esta zona y otras no particularmente cercanas, como las del suroeste de Bizkaia (Arratia, Zeberio). Las hablas de Eibar y Bergara se acercan ffias a las de la zona de Markina y, por tanto, al vizcaIno central, aunque presentan particularidades propias.
