French phonology and morphology (Schane 1968, henceforth FPM ) presents a tightly integrated set of arguments for an abstract morphophonemic stress rule in Modern French. This rule depends crucially on an underlying tense-lax distinction in the vowel system, and on various morphological restrictions. However, the FPM rule can be modified and restricted, within Schane's framework, to give a more accurate picture of stress assignment on a morphophonemic level. Such a reformulation leads to a synchronic rule in Modern French that is very similar to the Latin stress rule, thus providing a potential case where a particular generative phonological approach leads to a historically accurate synchronic grammar
