Re: Stressed syllable You can refer to any dictionary or websites like Dictionary.com | Find the Meanings and Definitions of Words at Dictionary.com or Dictionary and Thesaurus - Merriam-Webster Online to check which syllable is stressed in a word. To indicate primary stress ' is used before the stressed syllable.. Originally Posted by glclever
