If multiple strong vowels are found in a word, usually from agglutination, then the final strong vowel or root word gets the primary stress, and any remaining long vowels are shortened. The main exception is if the final vowel is a strong ''ⲩ'' and the penult vowel is either ''ⲁ'' or ''ⲟ''. Other exceptions may occur in more formal registers of speech, leaving long vowels in unstressed positions. | If multiple strong vowels are found in a word, usually from agglutination, then the final strong vowel or root word gets the primary stress, and any remaining long vowels are shortened.
