Appendix A
A.1 Early Old English
Form moraic trochees from left to right.
Root syllables of lexical items must be footed.
Trimoraic feet are tolerated only in word-initial position (or to prevent overheavy single syllables from being unfooted).1
Final feet are extrametrical for the purposes of stress assignment (excepting overheavy feet, which require a special licence to be footed).
The heads of (non-extrametrical) feet are stressed.
The leftmost foot carries the primary word stress (end-rule left).
A.2 Early Western Middle English
Form moraic trochees from left to right.
Root syllables of lexical items must be footed.
Final consonants may count as extrametrical. (?)
Final feet are extrametrical for the purposes of stress assignment.
The heads of non-extrametrical feet are stressed.
The leftmost foot carries the primary word stress (end-rule left).
A.3 Early Classical Old West Norse
Form moraic trochees from left to right.
Root syllables of lexical items must be footed.
Final inflectional(?)-r and-s are extremetrical.
Trimoraic feet are tolerated only in word-initial position, or to prevent overheavy single syllables from being unfooted.
Polysyllabic feet are only allowed word-initially.
Feet that are both overheavy and polysyllabic are only permitted when the foot aligns with the whole word.
Final feet are extrametrical for the purposes of stress assignment (excepting overheavy feet, which require a special licence to be footed).
The heads of (non-extrametrical) feet are stressed.
The leftmost foot carries the primary word stress (end-rule left).
Alternatively, final consonants are counted as extrametrical as needed to allow a final overheavy syllable to be footed.
