The accentuation is usually on the first syllable.
However, infinitive verbs have their accentuation on the penultimate syllable, just before the disinence.
When the verb is conjugated, the emphasis remains on this same syllable.
When a noun ends with "ia" the emphasis will always be on the "a", EXCEPT the proper nouns !
When the disinence of that same noun changes, the emphasis will go on the syllable that precedes the "i" of the "ia" combination.
But ! Sometimes the letter cannot have an accent, as is the case with the letters "ä", "ë", "ö", "y" and "å". In this case, if the accent is elsewhere, the problem is solved ;
a contrario, if it is nowhere, the accentuation is on this syllable.
There are certain terms that have only letters that cannot assume an accent, in this case the emphasis will be on the first syllable.
These rules in mind, there is ONE exception : "ë" is ALWAYS accentuated !
| Rules | Position | Examples | |
|---|---|---|---|
| General | first syllable | Cikada, Falkon | |
| Proper nouns | first syllable | Europia, Suomia, | |
| Infinitive verbs | penultimate syllable | Komunìkar, Skrivja, | |
| Adverbs in "y" | NEVER last syllable | Speciàlmy, Exàktamy | |
| Adjectives in "al" | last syllable | Federàl, Lokàl, | |
| Adjectives in "isk" | last syllable | Melankolìsk, Toksìsk | |
| Adjectives in "iv" | penultimate syllable | Distràktiv, Atràktiv, | |
| Nouns in "ia" | last syllable | Fobià, Kriminologià, | |
| Terms with "ë" | first "ë" only | Tårën, Hidrogën, |
