Japanese: iambos
iambos


[Metre, or poetic foot]
A step (also called a foot) is a group of notes that constitutes a phonological unit in poetry. It corresponds to a bar in music and is a time unit that integrates the length, strength, and pitch of sounds. In Greek and Latin poetics, a step was thought to arise from the arrangement of long and short syllables such as (daktylos), (spondeios), (anapaistos), (trochaios), and (iambos). In British poetics, a step was thought to arise from the arrangement of strong and weak syllables such as ×× (dactyl), (spondee), ×× (anapæst), × (trochee), and × (iambus).
