Abstract
The study is the starting point for a more extensive scientific research. Theoretically oriented, it presents a survey of research papers devoted to the similarities and differences of Australian and New Zealand English in terms of word stress. The author examines the socio-historical factors of dialect formation, the degree of the British and the American pronunciation influence, and contacts with other rhythmically natured languages, all the above resulting in the AusE and NZE original accentual structures.
