The so-called three-mora rule is a linguistic rule which argues that an enclitic cannot be more than three moras in length. That is, three shorts, a long and a short, or a short and a long. Within a single word the most that can follow the accent is a long and a short.〔Godfrey of Fontaine's Abridgement of Boethius of Dacia's: Modi ... -Boethius (of Dacia), Godfrey (of Fontaines), A. Charlene Senape Mac Dermott - 1980 Page 112 "It's impossible to throw it back to the preceding word (a real enclitic does ) because of the three-mora rule. An enclitic cannot be more than three-moras in length, i.e. three shorts, a long and a short, or a short and along. Within a single word the most that can follow the accent is a long and a short."〕 The Dreimorengesetz is a German term which translates to "three-mora rule." This name is given to the rule of Hermann Hirt (1865–1936) for placing the accent in a Germanic text.〔James W. Marchand The Sounds and Phonemes of Wulfila's Gothic -1973 Page 96 "5.31 The “Dreimorengesetz” The prevailing theory accounting for developments of inflectional endings from IE to Germanic to "the various Germanic languages is the theory of Dreimorigkeit .. This theory, as it is set down by its outstanding exponent, Hermann Hirt, is as follows :“7 Es gab im Idg. zweimorige und ..."..."〕 ==Latin == There is a similar rule for a Latin word, the Penultimate rule: With few exceptions, Latin words are stressed on the penult (second-to-last syllable) if it is "heavy" (having a long vowel or diphthong or ending in a consonant), and on the antepenult (third-to-last syllable) if the penult is "light" (ending with a short vowel.) Examples: #''Condĭtum'' "founded" = ''co•n—di—tum'' (heavy, light, final) = ''cónditum'' #''Condītum'' "seasoned" = ''co•n—di•i—tum'' (heavy, heavy, final) = ''condítum'' #''Conductum'' "brought together" = ''co•n—du•c—tum'' (heavy, heavy, final) =''condúctum'' ( - marks a syllable boundary, • marks a mora boundary) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dreimorengesetz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
