Adding accent marks to commands when attaching pronouns
When you attach even one pronoun to the end of an affirmative command, you must add an accent mark to the command form in order to maintain the correct stress. The written accent mark is placed on what was the next‐to‐the‐last syllable before you attached any pronoun
3 vowels back - 1 pronoun
4 vowels back - 2 pronouns
to lay down
acostarse
accent marks with infinitives
only with Double object pronouns (two pronouns DO & IO) with a regular infinitive, place the accent mark 3 vowels back. Note: if regular infinitive that only has one object pronoun - there is no accent
With gerund (-ando and -iendo), 4 vowels back from ending of word (2 pronouns), 3 vowels (1 pronoun)
In short its the second to last syllable of the verb before the pronouns
