    In easier way: we have vowels or N or S (why n or s ? because we add n to verbs like habla - hablan and s to nouns like ojo - ojos )
    Rule 1: if a word ends in vowels or N or S it must be stressed on SECOND TO LAST Syllable.
    NO NEED for an accent marker , OTHERWISE it must be accented to direct you where to stress.
    Rules 2: if a words ends in any other letter, it must be stressed on the LAST syllable.
    NO NEED for an accent marker, OTHERWISE it must be accented to tell you where to stress.
    Examples:
    sofá = soFA because without accent sofa is must be pronounced SOfa.
    también = tamBIEN ; without accent marker; tambien TAMbien.
    I hope it's useful
    Thank you

  • @lissy42nerdfighter
    @lissy42nerdfighter 11 років тому +19

    you won't know if a syllable is stressed by looking at it individually. You have to look at it in the context of the word. for example, the spanish word for telephone is pronounce teLEfono, and has an accent over the second e. Hope that helps.

  • @arthefuture
    @arthefuture 8 років тому +27

    This all has to do with which syllable is stressed when pronouncing the word. In Spanish, unlike English there are accents marks to assist with the stressed syllable in a word. Where you stress the syllable can change the meaning of a word completely, for example:
    la papa - the potato
    el Papa - the Pope
    el papá - the dad

  • @sydurgraham7760
    @sydurgraham7760 Рік тому +1

    Rule 2 is the most important. Speaking isn't too hard, but knowing where to put the tildes (' or ~) is crucial to Spanish grammar and WILL come up in any Spanish class.

    There is an app that teaches you accent mark placement rules without having to learn the rules. It makes it easy to learn to apply the rules.

  • @alejandro7664
    @alejandro7664 5 років тому

    i want to complicate the things, if there are two vowels joined and the accent is in the last one independently if it finishes in any letter, for example, baúl, even though the accent is in the last syllable and it finishes in l, we put the accent just for not get confused when you are learning, but there are exceptions, and yes the only way that you can learn this is reading to much

    Spanish would be better if they abandoned the accent marks. The're completely unnecessary and just add unneeded complication to typed Spanish. English uses accented syllables but you only see the accent marks in dictionaries. They're not used in practice. You learn how to correctly pronounce words and if you're not sure you look it up in the dictionary.
