 ====Stress====
-Stress is usually found on root syllables of words (root accentuation principle); usually this is the first syllable in a word, e.g. ''HWÁzáh'', ''WANsás''. In compounds, the first element receives primary stress regularly according to the root accentuation principle with the following element receiving a slightly weaker secondary stress, as in '''''HRÁ'''ríWINih'' (primary stress marked in bold). This is however not true with verbal compounds - the stress falls then on the first syllable of the verbal element.
