  • Stress is on the penultimate syllable, secondary stress is on the fourth to last syllable
  • If there is an accent, the accented letter receives the stress, and every other syllable before it receives secondary stress

Write the transliteration with an apostrophe ' after secondary stress, and writing the primary stress in ALL CAPS
