斯德哥尔摩瑞典语的两个单词重音（重音I和重音II）的区别在于重音II单词的重读音节上一致的降音轮廓。目前的研究提供了新的证据，表明这种单词口音的特征可以在16至18个月大的讲瑞典语的儿童产生的单词中系统地发现。与其他双音节作品相比，重音II词的重读音节具有更大的F-o衰减，更多的由程式化轮廓算法识别的高低转折点序列和更早的Fo峰值。此外，Fo峰值与重读音节Fo变化之间存在负相关关系。综上所述，这些研究结果表明，儿童学习瑞典语内化了一个微妙的，但词汇相关的音高轮廓的早期阶段的文字生产。
The two word accents in Stockholm Swedish (Accent I and Accent II) are distinguished by a consistent falling pitch contour on the stressed syllable of Accent II words. The current study presents new types of evidence that this feature of word accent can be systematically found in words produced by 16- to 18-month-old Swedish-speaking children. Compared to other disyllabic productions, the stressed syllable in Accent II words have a larger F-o decline, more sequences of high-low turning points identified by a stylized contour algorithm and an earlier Fo peak. In addition, a negative correlation is found between the value of Fo peak and Fo change in the stressed syllable. Taken together, these findings indicate that children learning Swedish have internalized a subtle but lexically relevant pitch contour by a very early stage of word production.
