This is the first title property in a paper by Morris Halle and Bill Idsardi that analyzes it in terms of bracketed grids. Larry Hyman’s typology claims that this property is distinguished by obligatoriness and culminativity, meaning that it appears once and only once per unit. The Latin system for this property is classified as quantity-sensitive because it is based on light and heavy units. In the International Phonetic Alphabet, a (*) high preceding vertical mark indicates this property’s primary form, whose absence often leads vowels to reduce to schwa (“shwah”). Pitch-accent systems are a form of this property, which is often fixed on a particular syllable, such as the penultimate, in a language. For 10 points, name this linguistic property of a syllable having emphasis in a word. ■END■
