In Spanish infinitives, the stress is always on the second-to-last syllable (penultimate syllable) by default, unless there is an accent mark indicating otherwise.

What are the rules governing patterns of word stress?

There are some general rules but these are not complete. As a general rule words tend to be stressed on the penultimate or antepenultimate syllable. (That's two or three syllables from the end.) Some suffixes are always stressed, some have the stress on the preceding syllable. Some do not affect stress. (For example, words ending in -tion are always stressed on the syllable before this ending.) Also many long word shave two or more stressed syllables. Finally, English English and American English often have different stresses - for example dictionary, laboratory.


What is the meaning of imply but the stress is on the second syllable?

The stress is always on the second syllable of "imply". It means to suggest without stating directly. Sometimes people confuse "imply" and "infer", which means "deduce" and also has its second syllable stressed. When one person implies something by an indirect statement, someone who understands what was implied infers that meaning.

Does ed add a syllable?

No, adding "ed" at the end of a word does not add a syllable if the word already ends in a consonant sound. For example, "talk" and "talked" both have one syllable.


Does a syllable have to have a vowel sound?

Yes, a syllable must contain a vowel sound. Vowels are typically the nucleus of a syllable, providing the core sound around which other consonants can cluster. Without a vowel sound, it is not possible to form a traditional syllable.

Where do the divisions go in iambic pentameter?

In Iambic Pentameter, you always have one unstressed syllable followed by a stressed one. A metric foot in literature is considered the grouping of these syllables. In iambic after every set of unstressed and stressed syllables you have a foot which is where you place the division. Since it is Pentameter, there will be five feet per line. I hope this is helpful to you.

What is an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed one in poetry?

There are several systems for marking stressed syllables.Sometimes it is by underlining the syllable that has the main or primary stress.Another system is to write the word with aTTENtion being drawn to the STRESSed SYLLable by WRIting it in CAPital letters.The problem with both of these methods is that there are sometimes primary and secondary stressed syllables. Furthermore, it is not always easy to decide which actual letters should be written in capitals.To overcome these difficulties, many dictionaries and language textbooks have made a practice of indicating pronunciation by using a phonetic alphabet such as the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA).In this system, primary stress is indicated by an upper accent mark placed immediately /be'for/ the stressed syllable. Any other syllable that has an important but weaker stress is preceeded by a lower accent mark /,/.For example, the three-syllable word submarine(sub-mar-ine) has two stressed syllables. The first syllable sub should be stressed slightly; the second syllable mar is not stressed; but the third syllable ineshould have the strongest emphasis. The phonetic spelling of submarine, using the lower (,weak) and upper ('strong) accent marks, is / ,sʌbmə'riːn / .For more ,infor'mation, see 'Sources and Re'lated linksbe'low.
