- 1981 March, Richard M. Hogg, “[Review of Recent developments in historical phonology]”, in Journal of Linguistics, volume 17, number 1, ISSN 1469-7742, page 158:
- There are two papers on problems of Indo-European phonology which, although I am too ignorant of the field to be able to comment upon them fully, both appear to me to be very useful contributions to the field. The more important of them is probably Werner Winter's 'The distribution of short and long vowels in stems of the type Lith. ésti: vèsti: mèsti and OCS jasti: vesti: mesti in Baltic and Slavic languages' (431–446). […] This (to an outsider) extremely impressive paper is well-provided with both the evidence for the rule and the evidence which counts against it. I suspect that Balto-Slavicists will be using this paper for many years to come.

Schmalstieg (779-91), after much discussion of the validity of universal principles in linguistic explanation, concludes that Hittite accusatives in -un and -uš (beside -an and -aš from etymological *-o-stems), like their counterparts in Baltic, Slavic, and Armenian, derive from *-oN and *-uN in word-final closed syllables
- 2004, Jay Jasanoff, “Balto-Slavic accentuation”, in Baltistica, volume 39, number 2, ISSN 2345-0045, page 173:
- An ordinarily well-informed Balto-Slavicist / Indo-Europeanist would immediately think of two potential ways to explain the circumflex in dȃ, one phonological, the other morphological.
- 2018, Eitan Grossman, “For the sake of an argument”, in Baltic Linguistics, volume 9, ISSN 2081-7533, page 245:
