Find the maximally heavy syllable or syllables. If there is only one maximum, it is tonic; the remaining preceding and following syllables, if any, are alternately atonic and subtonic, those adjacent to the tonic being atonic. If there are more than one maximum, the last but one out of the maxima is the tonic; the heavy syllable(s) preceding the tonic, if there are any, are all subtonic; the remaining syllables are alternately atonic, those adjacent to the tonic or to a heavy syllable, however, being always atonic. |
