If you are asking about the stressed syllable of the word "conflict," it depends on whether you are using it as a noun or verb.

The noun is CON-flict (as in, "There was conflict between them.")

The verb is con-FLICT (as in, "This writer's view conflicts with those of some other writers.")

[The second syllable is accented here.] There seems to be a tendency that usage as a noun gets an accent on the first syllable, and the usage as an intransitive verb gets that accent moved to the second syllable.
