This is the definition. It is very detailed, but don't worry. I'll give you an example next. Accented: The relative prominence of a particular syllable of a word by greater intensity or by variation or modulation of pitch and tone. Example: How do you say syllable? Like this? SYL-luh-bull. Yes. You won't catch anyone saying it like: syl-LOW-BILL. That's really the best I can do, and if you still don't get it, the suggestions below can help you. :-)
Accented syllables are syllables in a word that receive a greater emphasis or stress when spoken. They help determine the rhythm and flow of speech in a language. In English, accented syllables are usually louder, higher in pitch, or longer in duration compared to unaccented syllables.

Meter is the arrangement of a line of poetry by the number of syllables and the pattern of accented syllables. It helps create the rhythm and musicality of a poem, giving it a specific structure and flow. Different types of meter, such as iambic pentameter or trochaic tetrameter, can evoke different moods and emphasize certain themes in a poem.
