Syllable Structure(C)³V(C)³
Stress informationWord stress is default penultimate, and a stress marker is used for other positions, most commonly initial and final.
There is also grammatical word stress/emphasis, where changing the stress/emphasis of a word in a sentence, of which there is always only one, will change the part of speech of said word, where for example: <FÈSĬ tàmyà> with the stress/emphasis on <fèsĭ> would mean something like "[I/You/They] Drink water", <fèsĭ TÀMYÀ> with the stress/emphasis on <tàmyà> instead would mean something more like "Liquid food", as <fèsĭ> has adjectival and noun meanings and <tàmyà> has verbal and noun meanings, among possibly other meanings. And the stress/emphasis in both of these examples marks said words as nouns. Word stress/emphasis is not marked in any way.
