This book provides the most comprehensive treatment of phonological weight to date, combining traditional notions of categorical, rime-based weight with new developments in statistical prosodic phonology. It is based on a survey of weight systems in the world's languages, yielding a number of valuable generalizations for human language.
Introduction -- Weight scales for stress -- Prosodic minimality in isolation and in context -- quantitative meter -- Prosodic end-weight and the stress-weight interface -- Conclusion and further issues.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
