所有语言都表现出一种或另一种历史或共时的减弱效应，这表明所有语言使用者都必须对自己语音系统的强度差异有某种本能或潜意识的认识。因此，音系解释理论的目标之一必须是以一种非任意的方式捕捉这些强度关系。在讨论强度问题时，我们需要参考两个层次的结构：旋律和韵律。因此，本文首先探讨了强韵律位置与强旋律表达之间的关系。接着讨论了元素理论（Harris and Lindsey 1995; Backley and Nasukawa 2006; Nasukawa and Backley 2008）中对头部和非头部旋律表达的区分，并认为一些阻碍类别——送气音、引射音、全浊音顿音——必须被表示为头部旋律表达。最后，它显示了头部表情如何在语音信号中作为强大的声学线索；这些线索帮助听者识别韵律成分，如脚和单词，从而促进语言处理。有人认为，通过知道韵律域的开始和结束位置，词汇访问会更有效，中心主张是，带标题的旋律表达有助于语言使用者定位这些韵律边界。
All languages show lenition effects of one kind or another, either historical or synchronic, which suggests that all language users must have a certain instinctive or subconscious knowledge about strength differences in their own sound system. One of the goals of an explanatory theory of phonology must therefore be to capture these strength relations in a non-arbitrary way. When addressing the issue of strength, it emerges that we need to refer to two levels of structure: melodic and prosodic. Accordingly, this paper begins by considering the relation between strong prosodic positions and strong melodic expressions. It then goes on to discuss the distinction made in Element Theory (Harris and Lindsey 1995; Backley and Nasukawa 2006; Nasukawa and Backley 2008) between headed and non-headed melodic expressions, and argues that some obstruent categories – aspirates, ejectives, fully voiced stops – must be represented as headed melodic expressions. Finally, it shows how headed expressions function as strong acoustic cues in the speech signal; these cues help listeners to identify prosodic constituents such as feet and words, and thereby facilitate language processing. It will be argued that lexical access is made more efficient by knowing where prosodic domains begin and end, the central claim being that headed melodic expressions assist language users in locating these prosodic boundaries.
