An analysis of stress and intonation patterns in Swedish is presented in the context of lexical phonology. The theories of lexical, metrical, and autosegmental phonology are outlined, and a brief review of Swedish stress and tone patterns is presented. The nature of Swedish stress, the interaction of stress rules with length and morphology, the representation of tone accents, and the interaction of stress, tone accent association, and morphology in Swedish are examined and illustrated.
