Lexical Stresses in Macedonian and Polish.

Hammond, Michael

Phonology, v6 n1 p19-38 1989

Argues that the distribution of lexical stresses in Macedonian and Polish follows from the architecture of metrical theory and can be accounted for by adopting revised obligatory branching (ROB) feet. These are feet where the head dominates an accented syllable and the nonhead may dominate any kind of syllable. (17 references) (JL)
