Stress

Stress defaults to the first syllable of a word. Occasionally, a word with a modifying prefix will retain its stress on the first syllable of the root word, but words thought of as individual words will stress the first syllable, even when that is a prefix.

Intonation

The long vowels in Meoka are normally pronounced with a falling tone. In some contexts, such as a formal speech, in poetry, or in music, the long vowel may rise, or simply be held steady, but in everyday usage, it is only slightly longer than a short vowel, and falls in tone.
