The correct answer is False

Explanation:

In language, a primary accent refers to the syllable of a word that is stressed or accented in the case of words with two or more syllables, which is used in poetry as part of the rhythm. On the other hand, the word caesura refers to a break or pause in a verse marked by a comma or similar punctuation mark that usually divides or splits the verse into equal parts and introduces a silence in the middle of it. This means the caesura is not related to the sound of syllables as in the case of primary accents, but a stylistic device used in poetry to create breaks. Considering this, it can be concluded it is false a caesura is a primary accent because a caesura is a pause or break in the verse and it is not related to whether a syllable is accented or not.

False. A caesura is a complete pause in a verse or a musical composition. It is a brief silent pause during which metrical time is not counted.
