Hey all,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This is just a query for sources.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm looking for languages that have been explicitly described as having no word-level stress. I was under the impression that this was fairly common, but apparently the existence of such languages (e.g. French) is controversial [?]. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>To be clear, I mean stress in Hyman's sense of a single culminative and obligatory marking of prominence. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>(After that, I'm wondering whether there have been cases of languages that are described as containing neither word-level nor phrase-level stress in the same sense).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>best,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
