The underlying pattern of English rhythm is that the stressed syllables of stressed words occur on relatively evenly spaced "beats." This concept is called the Rhythm Rule. This pattern is possible because words and sentences have three levels of stress: 1. stressed 2. unstressed 3. secondarily stressed

In both words and sentences, unstressed syllables often occur next to stressed syllables. unstressed syllables Are you com ing?
