What is Metrical Stress Theory Overview about?

Metrical stress theory is an approach to categorizing stress and stress rules. It organizes stress into rhythmic hierarchies within feet rather than treating stress as a segmental feature. Major contributors include Liberman, Prince, Halle, and Hayes. Metrical stress theory uses trees, grids, and parameters like foot structure, directionality, and quantity sensitivity to represent stress patterns in languages.
