+====Stress====
+Stress varies upon the part of speech and the way the word is constructed.
+In most, if not all, 2 syllable verbs, when in dictionary form, the stress is on the tense ending.
+:"etrej" (to be) = <b>é</b>-trej
+:"aštej" (to buy) = aš-<b>téj</b>
+For verbs over 2 syllables, the stress is either 2nd to last syllable, or last syllable.
+:"sujetej" (to wish (for)) = su-je-<b>téj</b>
+Stress in nouns aren't really regular.
+Most 2 syllable nouns have the stress on the last syllable. However, most nouns that end with "i" have the stress on the first syllable.
+:"mačkon" (house) = mač-<b>kón</b>
+:"panać" (bread) = pa-<b>náć</b>
+:"valač" (village) = <b>vál</b>-ač (/'vɐlɪt͡ʃ/)
+:"livški" (book) = <b>lív</b>-ški (/'livʃkɪ/)
+For 3 syllables, the stress is usually on the 2nd syllable.
+:"labričnie" (maze) = la-<b>bríč</b>-nie (/la'bʁit͡ʃnje/)
+In words having over 3 syllables, the stress is usally on the 2nd to last syllable, but there are exceptions.
+Usually, if the number of syllables increase by 1 as a result of the number suffix, the stress is almost always on the 2nd to last syllable.
