So, we all have intuitions about possible and impossible stress patterns in sentences. Moreover, we all have strong phonotactic intuitions – i.e. intuitions about what are possible and impossible sound sequences among native words in English. For instance, we'd probably all agree that blick is a possible, but non-occurring English word, whereas *bnick by contrast is not a possible native English word[.]

The term missy appears to be a Chinese Pidgin English term from English miss + the Cantonese phonotactic suffix -ee/-y[.]
