There is also a group of accentuation oppositions where compound nouns are opposed to free word combinations, e. g. a 'blackboard - класна дошка; a 'black 'board - чорна дошка; a 'dancing-girl - танщвниця; a 'dancing 'girl - дiвчина, яка танцюе.

Compounds = EARLY STRESS

Phrases = LATE STRESS

a 'darkroom = a room for developing photographs a 'moving van = a van which carries furniture when one moves house
a 'blackbird = a kind of bird: Turdus merula
an 'English teacher = a teacher of English

a c dark 'room = a room which is dark because there is little light in it a c moving 'van = a van that is in motion
a c black 'bird = any bird that is black
an c English 'teacher = a teacher who is English






There are also often differences between the stressing of compounds in RP and General American, e. g.:

RP

GenAm

'season oticket

oseason 'ticket

oAdam’s 'apple

'Adam's oapple

oopeanut'butter

'peanut obutter

ovocal 'cords

'vocal ocords






It is not a serious problem, but is one that foreign learners should be aware of. A well-known example is 'controversy', which is pronounced by some speakers as ['kontrev3:si] and by others as [kan'trovasi]; it would be quite wrong to say that one version was correct and one incorrect. Other examples of different possibilities are 'ice cream' (either [oais 'kri:m] or ['ais kri:m)], 'kilometre' (either [ki'lnmita] or ['kilamkta] and 'formidable' ['fo:midabl] or [fo:'midabl].
Word-class pairs. One aspect of word stress is best treated as a separate issue. There are several dozen pairs of two- syllable words with identical spelling which differ from each other in stress placement, apparently according to word class (noun, verb or adjective). All appear to consist of prefix +
stem. We shall treat them as a special type of word and give them the following rule: if a pair of prefix-plus-stem words exists, both members of which are spelt identically, one of which is a verb and the other of which is either a noun or an adjective, then the stress is placed on the second syllable of the verb but on the first syllable of the noun or adjective. Some common examples are given below (V = verb, A = adjective,
W

N = noun):







abstract

['^bstrakt] (A)

[sb'strakt] (V);

conduct

['kundvkt] (N)

['ksn'dAkt] (V);

contract

['kuntrakt] (N)

e shall turn now to the functional aspect of word stress.

Word stress in a language performs three functions.

  1. Word stress constitutes a word, it organizes the syllables of a word into a language unit having a definite accentual structure, that is a pattern of relationship among the syllables; a word does not exist without the word stress. Thus the word stress performs the constitutive function. Sound continuum

  2. becomes a phrase when it is divided into units organized by word stress into words.

  3. Word stress enables a person to identify a succession of syllables as a definite accentual pattern of a word. This function of word stress is known as identificatory (or recognitive). Correct accentuation helps the listener to make the process of communication easier, whereas the distorted accentual pattern of words, misplaced word stresses prevent normal understanding.

  4. Word stress alone is capable of differentiating the meaning of words or their forms, thus performing its distinctive function. The accentual patterns of words or the degrees of word stress and their positions form oppositions. There are about 135 pairs of

words of identical orthography in English which could occur either as nouns (with stress on the penultimate syllable) or as verbs (with stress on the final syllable), the location of word stress alone being the differentiating factor.
