For example. the stress of */kVtVpV/ would invariably be [ˈkV.tV.bV] because velar consonants attract stress more strongly than either alveolars or bilabials. The same would also be true if the syllable order were reversed, thus */pVtVkV/ would be realized as [bV.dVkV]. However, if the prefix */ʔV/ is added, then the word would be stressed as *[ˈʔV.pV.dV.gV] since /ʔ/ attracts stress more than any other consonant in the word. | For example. the stress of */kVtVpV/ would invariably be [ˈkV.tV.bV] because velar consonants attract stress more strongly than either alveolars or bilabials.

If Onset Articulation is factored in, then prenasalized consonants and geminated consonants are stronger than their plain counterparts as well as the other categories of placement. Thus /<sup>m</sup>p/ will always attract stress over /ʔ/, /k/, or /w/ despite its placement of bilabial being "weaker" than | If Onset Articulation is factored in, then prenasalized consonants and geminated consonants are stronger than their plain counterparts as well as the other categories of placement.
