[mary-users] Accent vs. Stress

[Ingmar Steiner]

Dear Thorsten,

"accented_syls_from_phrase_start" is exactly what the javadoc says: it "Counts the number of accented syllables since the start of the phrase."

This refers to the number of syllables that are predicted to have accents, and counting those does not involve F0.
