The acoustic correlates were measured by means of a sona-graph and a pitch indicator at the Institute for the Study of Languages and Cultures of Asia and Africa, Tokyo. The result of this study shows that only 'time-duration' functions as a phoneme. As the Tagalog language is a 'syllable-timed' language, the length of syllables is equal except that of syllables which form the accent. The 'time-duration' accent is not physically the protraction of the accented syllable, but is (1) the shortening of the syllable that precedes the accented one or (2) the occurrence of the accented syllable in the initial position. Psychologically, the accented syllable impresses hearers as being longer than other syllables in the word, though, in fact, all syllables are equal in length, except for the one which precedes the accented syllable.
