The Representation of Stress-Patterns in Pronunciation Dictionaries: ‘Morse-Code’ vs. Orthographic Marking
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 06 February 2009
Extract
The marking of stress in English phonetics has traditionally used a small vertical bar placed before the stressed syllable, though some dictionaries which provide an indication of pronunciation have used other conventions such as bold or italic typeface to denote the primary stressed syllable. In all the editions of the English Pronouncing Dictionary (e.g. Jones 1988), including the current one (hereafter referred to as EPD14), the vertical bar has been used, in superscript position for the primary stressed syllable and in subscript position for the secondary stressed syllable.
