  Only the first or the second syllable of a word may be stressed. The choice of the position of stress is determined by regular phonological and morphological rules for most words, although there are also metrically irregular forms, which can be derived only on the basis of diacritical information. Only two degrees of prominence are found in underived words: stressed versus unstressed. All unstressed syllables are equally weak. The second syllable is stressed if its vowel is not inferior in weight to the first vowel, else stress is initial (Kodzasov 1999)
