This prompted emeneau 1 to describe these languages as belonging to a common linguistic area or sprachbund. What that means with respect to the definitions it puts forward, i don't know. The pitch may fall across both morae, or mostly on one or the other (depending on the sequence of sounds)—that is, the first mora may end with a high falling pitch, or the second may begin with a (low) falling pitch, but the first mora will be considered accented regardless A mora is an object which allows the possibility of representational contrastiveness, so if a language has short and long vowels, that can be represented via one versus two moras on a vowel. You can sort of read this article on vowel length, this about moras, sorta this about geminates, and sorta this article by draga zec on (sorta means that you may have to dig to get the actual articles) The mora article is in the wild, the others are in the blackwell's companion to phonology.
That would help me visualize the prosodic hierarchy better, because i could put something beneath the syllable level.
