Somewhat of a pitch accent system is in place in Vurásandi, where the change of a stressed syllable can affect the semantic meaning of a word or phrase. This will always be marked by the system of short vowels and long vowels. <br /> | |||
The stress normally falls on the second to last syllable for most words. However it is possible that stress may fall on other syllables, in cases when stress is elsewhere it will always be marked with an accent mark. In words with 4 syllables or more whose stress is not on the second to last syllable, there is still a secondary stress on the second to last syllable. | |||
