Note: the suffix “al” doesn’t affect the stress but for words ending in “ent”
Ex: Refuse  Refusal
Accidental, environmental, experimental, instrumental
Exception: Origin  original

2. The suffixes have stress preceding them
eous advantageous
graphy Geography, photography, ( photo, photograph, photographer )
ial commercial, proverbial
ic climatic, economic, scientific
ion/tion/sion perfection, nation, education
ious religious, delicious, injurious
ive/itive/ative relative, sensitive, informative, inventive
Note: ise/ize/fy/ate/logy/logist/cracy: the stress will falls on the third syllable from the end of the word
Ex: modernize, classify, liberate, democracy, technology, psychologist
D. Compound words
1. If the first part tends to be Adjectival, the stress goes on the second element
Ex: loudspeaker, bad-temper, second-class
Exceptions:
Superman, supermarket, superstructure, greenhouse, gentlemen, background, blackboard, blackmail, bluebell, blueprint (almost every word has the stress on “blue”)
2. However, if the second element tends to be a noun, the stress goes on the first element
Ex: typewriter, suitcase, laptop, network, sunrise
Levels of stress
Primary stress: We put a high mark ` before the syllable
Secondary stress: We put a low mark , before the syllable
Secondary stress only appears when the primary stress falls on the third syllable to the end of the word
Secondary stress precedes primary stress one syllable
Ex: conventional consumer conservation container
Note:
- We often have a weak vowel before the stress
In American English, the vowel “I” often becomes “ә” so we should be careful when we design the pronunciation test :
Ex: difficult resident president pesticide
priority resident president pesticide


I would like to receive your ideas to make my topic more perfect.



Good success to your pronunciation !
Thank you for listening
