Metre or meter is the measurement of a musical line into measures of stressed and unstressed "beats", indicated in Western music notation by a symbol called a time signature.

 Amittai F. Aviram : Meter in English Verse
Meter, then, is a regular, organized pattern of syllables, and sometimes other sound features in addition, in order to cause an utterance to conform to a musical beat, and therefore to give the impression of an alternation of beat and offbeat positions.
Triple meter is subject to one variation rule: the double offbeat may occasionally be replaced by a single offbeat, so long as this does not happen so often that the meter no longer sounds triple.
In triple triple meters, demotion may occur on one of the two offbeat syllables in order to preserve the pattern, so long as the syllables on the beat are also clearly stressed.
