What is Word Stress?

In English, we do not accentuate every Syllable in a word, we accentuate only one syllable.

For example

Teach–er

Plas-tic

The stress can be found in any syllable but it depends on the characteristics of the word, some people rely on experience but not all of us can rely on it and that’s why we learn the word stress rules or we succeed with a combination of experience and rules

Word Stress Rules

Let’s Remember that:

One word has only one stress syllable.

We stress vowels and not consonants.
