The term accent means that if you play a chord on the piano, like an Am, you play it quietly, softly press the keys, and suddenly, violently attack the keys by pressing them harder, making the volume louder, but that is if you have a good piano, because some cheap piano's make the same volume no matter how hard you press the keys.
