In a five-syllable word, the general rule is to accent the second-to-last syllable unless indicated otherwise by the word's origin or pronunciation.
An open syllable is a syllable that ends in a vowel sound, typically making a long vowel sound. Examples include "be" and "to."
In French, the stressed syllable is typically the last syllable of the word. However, there are exceptions to this rule based on the word's accentuation and morphology.
The stress is on the 4th syllable, the syllable before the -ic. This is the rule with most words that end in -ic, such as in heroic and athletic as well.
No, but there must be a vowel sound.
The rule that applies to the word "exhaust" is that the stress falls on the second syllable when it is used as a noun (ex-haust) and on the first syllable when used as a verb (ig-zawst).
The accented syllable in a word is typically the one that is pronounced with more emphasis or force. It may not always follow a specific rule and can vary depending on the word. You can usually determine the accented syllable by pronouncing the word and noting which syllable sounds stronger or has a higher pitch.
You cannot. It is a general rule that you can't abbreviate one-syllable words.
The second syllable in the word "syllable" is accented.
