I know this is a long shot, but does anyone know of a dataset of English words that has stress information by syllable? Something as simple as the following would be fantastic:
AARD vark
A ble
a BOUT
ac COUNT
AC id
ad DIC tion
ad VERT ise ment
...
So, for example in the word 'ahead', 'HEAD' is the stressed syllable and the 'a' at the beginning is un-stressed - 'a. HEAD'. In 'amended', 'MEN' is the stressed syllable the 'a' and the 'ded' at the end are unstressed - 'a. MEN.
Four Syllables: 2nd Syllable Stressed The stress in four syllable words is either on the second or third syllable. The second syllable is generally stressed if the word ends in “-cy”, “-ty”, “-phy”, “-gy” or “-al”.
When a word has more than one syllable, a single syllable within the word is given more emphasis than any of the other syllables. That syllable is considered to be the stressed syllable.
I closest thing I'm aware of is the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary. I don't think it explicitly marks the stressed syllable, but it should be a start.
