Abstract :This paper conducts a preliminary exploration of the rhythmic structure patterns in Chinese, a topic that has not been extensively examined in the field of phonology. The study delves into the unique characteristics of Chinese prosody, emphasizing the interaction between stress and tone in shaping the rhythm of the language. Unlike stress-timed languages, Chinese rhythm is significantly influenced by its tonal nature, creating a distinct rhythmic pattern that is intrinsically linked to the tonal qualities of syllables. The research highlights the complexity of syllabic structure in Chinese, exploring the roles of initial sound, medial sound, main vowel, and final sound in the formation of rhythmic units. This study provides a comprehensive understanding of the nuanced interplay between stress, tone, and syllable structure in Chinese, offering a foundational perspective for further research in Chinese phonology and prosody.
