Ví dụ: lemon /´lemən/ --> lemonade /lem.ən'eɪd/; interview /'intəvju:/ --> interviewee /¸intəvju:´i:/

  • với -eous, -graphy, -ial/-ual, -ic, -ion, -ious, -ity, -ive, trọng âm chính thường rơi vào âm tiết cuối của từ gốc. 

Ví dụ: advantage /əd'vɑ:ntidʤ/ --> advantageous /ædvən'teidʤəs/; photo /´foutou/ --> photography /'fəutəugrəfi/

  • với -al, -ary, -iar, -ular, -ial, -ia, -iance, -cian, -eous, -ic, -ience/-ient/iency, -ious, -ium, -sion, -tion, -ual trọng âm thường rơi vào âm tiết ngay trước hậu tố.

Ví dụ: continent /'kɔntinənt/ --> continental /¸kɔnti´nentəl/; environment /in'vaiərənmənt/ --> environmental /in,vairən'mentl/

  • với -able/-ably, -age, -al(ly), -en, -ful(ly), -ing(ly), -ish(ly), -like, -less(ly), -ly, -ment, -ness, -ous(ly), -er/-or/-ar, -fy, -wise, -y thường không làm thay đổi trọng âm chính của từ
