=== | In Kutic, stress is placed on the antepenultimate(third-before-last) syllable. For example in the word ''[[Contionary:miquj'la|miquj'la]]''("oak wood", <small>Kutic:</small> [[IPA for Kutic|<nowiki>[ˈmiˌqud͡ʑ.lɐ]</nowiki>]]), stress is placed on ''mi-''. | ||
===Phonotactics=== | |||
In Kutic, two consonants of the same category can not be placed together, for example two [[w:Fricative consonant|fricatives]], such as /s/ and /z/, or two [[w:Plosive|plosives]], such as /q/ and /g/, would not be consecutively combinable, although an alternating pattern of said consonants, such as /sqzg/, would be theoretically possible. | |||
However, this pattern does not apply to vowels, where instead open, near-open and open-mid vowels can not be pronounced in an alternating fashion with close, near-close and close-mid vowels, although there are no restrictions on horizontal dimensions, so for example diphthongs such as /aɔ/ or /æɒ/ would be entirely possible. | |||
Mid vowels do not appear in Kutic, although in other Ebró languages which have similar phonotactic rules mid vowels are freely combinable with any other non-mid vowel. | |||
