]The course providers want to know what you know, not what we know.

They may well expect you to research these questions, but that does not mean asking other people.

you are absolutely right but I'm asking to help me out in this regard, as I do not know much about Stress thing. .. I have seen threads in which trainers have answered the questions, thts why I have put up all these things.

I do not know much about Stress

I googled 'word stress', and found several helpful sites in the first ten that came up.

1. Only one stress on one word.

2. Only vowels can be stressed.

Try to say the word out loud, as it might make it easier to locate the stressed vowel in the word.

The stress is on the part where you emphasise a bit on the word.

Momeeentous, Byyyyystander, Supeeeerb, Indepeeendent, Unden(iiii)able, Compuuuuter, Buuuurger.

I guess you get the point.

I know the question was asked since 2011, but it could probably help someone who stumbles across it.
