Tsani does not phonemically distinguish words stress, similar to French. Some linguists have criticised d'Ivoire for this view, claiming it is francocentric. It does, according to d'Ivoir, have a sentence stress; a stress that almost unexclusively falls on the last syllable, just like in the [[w:French language|French language]]. It is not appropriate to call this stress, however; a more fitting description is a universal rise in tone. | |||
