Q

Rules for Stress

A

1) If a word has two syllables, always accent the first syllable.

2) If a word has three or more syllables, the accent goes on the second-to-last syllable if the vowel in the second-to-last syllable is long or counts as long.
* A short vowel counts as long if it is followed by two or more consonants.

3) If a word has three or more syllables, the accent goes on the third-to-last syllable if the vowel in the second-to-last is short.
