    Slovene folk & authorial Protestant songs & pre-Reformation texts adopted by the Protestants for their songbooks are analyzed for word-melodic stress congruence; it is found that such an agreement is more frequent in folk than Protestant songs, where the accent is usually placed on syllables unstressed in speech. The verse composition in the authorial Protestant songs focuses more on the melodic than textual rhythm (word stress). A similar melodic accentuation can be attested in the pre-Reformation songs adopted by Slovene Protestants. 6 References. Adapted from the source document
