Qino has a pitch accent system. If a word contains a syllable with a high/rising/falling tone, that syllable is stressed (if there are multiple, primary stress falls on the final). If the word consists exclusively of low tones, stress falls on the final "long" syllable (i.e. syllable that is closed and/or contains a long vowel), or on the initial syllable if all are short. | |||
