Example of Tonic Words

The tonic words are the words that they have a prosodic accent, which is represented in some words by means of a graphic accent (´). The accent is the greater strength or enhancement with which one syllable is pronounced with respect to the rest of the syllables. One of the syllables of the tonic word will be enunciated with greater relief:

• Typical (the syllable you has the accent: you - peak).
• Excursion (the syllable Zion has the accent: ex - cur - Zion).
• Height (the syllable you has the accent: to the - you - ra).
• Heart (the syllable zone has the accent: co - ra - zone).
• Truth (the syllable dad has the accent: watch - dad).
• Paremedic (the syllable I has the accent: in order to - I - say - co).

This syllable on which the accent of a word falls is called stressed syllable; the other syllables that lack an accent are called unstressed syllables.

In Spanish, we have many words that are tonic, among these we can mention the nouns, the verbs (in their personal and non-personal forms), the adjectives

(except the possessives before the noun), the personal pronouns, the demonstrative (except articles), interrogatives Y exclamatory (both adjectives and pronouns), most of the adverbs, among others.

Classification of stressed words

Tonic words are classified according to their stress in:

1. Sharp tonic words. The accent is located on the last syllable: lesson (lec - tion), activity (ac - ti - vi - dad), view (saw - Zion), will come (come - will), Health (sa - lud), chew (more - you - car), forgiveness (per - Don).
2. Grave key words. The accent is located on the penultimate syllable: wound (I have - ri - gives), voltage (vol - ta- heh), charisma (ca - ris - ma), redoubt (re - duc- to), easy (sen - ci - cry), object (ob - heh - to).
3. Esdrújulas tonic words. The accent is located on the penultimate syllable: traffic (tra - fi - co), drastic (drás - you - ca), inhospitable (in - hós - pi - to), sharp (neither - you - do), onomastic (or not - more - you - co), physical (fy - yes - co).
4. Tonic words sobreesdrújulas. The accent is located in one of the syllables before the penultimate: change it (cam - bia - te - lo), show us (mués - tra - nos - lo ), change it (cam - well - I know - it).
