Unlike Western Pomorian dialects and the standard Suvilkian has only two types of stress - long and short | Unlike Western Pomorian dialects and the standard Suvilkian developed a quantitative stress. It has only two types of stress - long and short which are phonemic only in diphthongs. It merged circumflex and grave into the short accent, while acute became the long accent. For example ''gèidz̗uo'' (to a tit) and ''géidz̗uo'' (to a whistle). However, sometimes the place of stress is different from the standard, being usually more regular and predictable. | ||
