Primary Stress

• Primary stress refers to the accent of a word. It is the main stress on a syllable of a word that changes the pronunciation and sound of the word.

• The part of the word that is marked as primary stress should be spoken with a little emphasis, and a slight pressure should be put on that syllable.

• The pronunciation of a word is dependent on the stress laid on the syllables.
