Analyses of the acoustic correlates of stress and results from a perception experiment suggest important differences in the way stress is signalled: except for F0 max, the values for which were bigger in Bulgarian, all other acoustic cues under investigation seemed to be less strong in Bulgarian, a language exhibiting features of both stress-timed and syllable-timed rhythmic organization, than in English, a language tending towards the stress-timed end of the rhythm scale.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
