Barytone
In Ancient [Greek grammar], a barytone is a word without any accent on the last syllable. Words with an acute or circumflex on the second-to-last or third-from-last syllable are barytones, as well as words with no accent on any syllable:
- τις 'someone'
- ἄνθρωπος 'person'
- μήτηρ 'mother'
- μοῦσα 'muse'
