Acute accents may be added on all vowels to mark stress; this is in formal writings mandatory word-finally (''-ǽ'' is very common because of Greek -τική words such as ''maþematikǽ'' "mathematics" or ''politikǽ'' "politics") and in some plurisyllabic words ending in ''-s'' if the vowel before it is stressed (e.g. ''granís'' "frontier, border"). In colloquial writing, this is not usually done.

/j/ is sometimes written '''i''' instead of '''j''' when morpheme-final before a vowel-initial morpheme, e.g. ''skoliejtyk'' "school-", from ''skoli'' (school) + ''-ejtyk'' (adjectival suffix, < Lat. -āticum).
