<p>from Utrecht Lexicon of Linguistics</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Metrical phonology''' is a cover term which refers to several [[non-linear]] theories of [[stress]]. The non-linear theory of the representation of stress as introduced by Liberman (1975) and Liberman &amp; Prince (1977) is a direct reaction to the linear analysis of stress proposed within the [[The Sound Pattern of English|Sound Pattern]]-framework developed by Chomsky &amp; Halle (1968), in which stress is considered a property of individual segments (i.e. vowels). In metrical phonology, stress is seen as a relational property obtaining between constituents, expressed in metrical trees as a binary relation between sister nodes which are labeled weak or strong. The theory of metrical phonology is further developed by e.g. Hayes (1980), Prince (1983), Kager (1989) and others.<br /> <br /> ===Link===<br /> [http://www2.let.uu.nl/UiL-OTS/Lexicon/zoek.pl?lemma=Metrical+phonology&amp;lemmacode=540 Utrecht Lexicon of Linguistics]<br /> <br /> ===References===<br /> *{{:Chomsky &amp; Halle 1968}}<br /> *Hayes, B.
