Note that TKD also says, "In addition, if the meaning of any particular suffix is to be emphasized, the stress may shift to that syllable." So verb stress is variable and suffixes like {-be'} often get stressed more than the root even if it's the only suffix.<br>

<div class="PlainText">tkd says:<br>
"In a verb, the stressed syllable is usually the verb itself, as<br>
opposed to any prefix or suffix. If, however, a suffix ending with {'}<br>
is separated from the verb by at least one other suffix, both the verb<br>
and the suffix ending in {'} are stressed"<br>
<br>
So:<br>
1. If I have {yajbe'} only the {-be'} is stressed<br>
2. If I have {yajlaHbe'} both {yaj} and {-be'} will be equally stressed<br>
<br>
Are the above correct ?<br>
<br>
Also:<br>
1. If I have a two-syllable verb, which doesn't contain a {'}, and<br>
doesn't have any suffixes, then where do I place the stress ?<br>
2. With regards to the interrogative suffix {-'a'}; is it stressed as<br>
any other suffix which bears the {'}, or is it stressed with the<br>
"voice rising" as you would ask for instance "do you see the cat ?"<br>
