accentual system
An accentual system is a method of determining the rhythm and stress patterns in language, particularly in poetry and verse. It focuses on the number of stressed syllables in each line/tunit rather than the total syllable count. The stress patterns create a specific rhythm, which can vary based on the language or the specific style of writing or speaking being used.
