Lw English

The English language layer for lyric writing (英文词的重音与节拍对齐). Word stress is fixed inside a polysyllabic word, so the melody bends to the word and never the reverse; stressed syllables belong on stressed notes, which keeps the natural shape of the language; line length is counted in stressed syllables, not total syllables; common meter and its 4-3 stress lines; long syllables want long notes and the contour should track the sentence's intonation; where the breath falls, how phrase length accelerates a section, what enjambment costs; what gonna, wanna and 'em do to the count; why the, of and and must not land on a downbeat; and the mistakes a Chinese-speaking writer makes in English. Use when writing or checking English lyrics, fitting English words to a melody, when a sung line sounds mispronounced, when counting syllables, or when a line will not fit the bar. 英文作词、英文歌词、重音、节拍对齐、音节数、prosody、phrasing、气口、重音落错、唱不进小节。
