This procedure develops representations for those features of speech such as tone or stress sequences and other contours (‘secondary phonemes’, prosodemes) which extend over whole utterances, whether or not these contours have independent meanings. Extraction of these contours as distinct single elements leaves in each utterance a sequence of segments which are devoid of such features as tone and stress, and which are in fact the traditional positional variants of phonemes. - Harris (1951), a pag.45
