Stress Rule
Stress typically falls on the antepenultimate syllable if the word ends in a vowel, 'n', or 's'.
- The 'ntr' cluster in 'entren' is a key consideration, preserved due to its association with the root morpheme.
- Regional variations in the pronunciation of /ɾ/ (single 'r' sound) do not affect syllable division.
