The tendency towards alternating stressed and unstressed syllables is also apparent in the rhythmic rule which specifies that stress retraction occurs in certain words in order to produce this alternation. For instance, "Tennessee" normally has its strongest stress on the last syllable. But in the phrase, "Tennessee walking horse," the strongest stress in "Tennessee" retracts to the front of the word to produce an alternating pattern. For example:
CONCLUSION
Having completed this investigation we can come to the following conclusions:
The sequence of syllables in the word is not pronounced identically. The syllable or syllables which are uttered with more prominence than the other syllables of the word are said to be stressed or accented. The correlation of varying prominences of syllables in a word is understood as the accentual structure of the word or its stress pattern. Stress implies greater force with which the syllable is pronounced. In other words in the articulation of the stressed syllable greater muscular energy is produced by the speaker. European languages such as English, German, French, Russian are believed to possess predominantly dynamic word stress. Word stress constitutes a word, it organizes the syllables of a word into a language unit having a definite accentual structure. Word stress enables a person to identify a succession of syllables as a definite accentual pattern of a word. Word stress alone is capable of differentiating the meaning of words or their forms.
By uttering a single word we may deal with musical component of intonation. The accentual structure of English words is liable to instability due to the different origin of several layers in the Modern English word-stock. In Germanic languages the word stress originally fell on the initial syllable or the second syllable, the root syllable in the English words with prefixes.
Every sentence can have some intonation. And in every sentence we can find such component of intonation as sentence stress which can influence stress of words it consists of. It is more convenient to distinguish some elements of stress-and-pitch pattern of intonation group.
