<p><b>New page</b></p><div>In phonology, the '''melody tier''' is the part of a phonological representation which encodes the [[segment]]al contents of a specific phonological unit. <br />
<br />
===Example===<br />
In [[moraic theory]], [[long vowel]]s are often considered to be identical to their short counterparts as far as their segmental contents is concerned. Therefore they are represented identically at the melody tier but have different moraic content. <br />
