Analytical notes on acoustic correlates of stress experiment 2

These are analytical notes presenting the three-sentence mini monologues used in the "acoustic correlates of stress in Mankiyali" experiment. The token in Sentence 1 for each mini monologue is focused and therefore contains phrase-level and word-level stress. Sentence 2 sets up the context for the token in sentence 3 to be devoid of phrase-level stress, allowing word-level stress to be teased apart and analyzed.
