To understand the emphasis of words, we must understand the letters of the words. Words have one or more syllables.
You may ask what is a syllable? – A syllable is a unit of pronunciation. It consists of one or more vowel sounds and one or more consonant sounds.
Note that (with the exception of a few exceptions) all syllables contain at least one vowel (a, e, i, o or u) or a vowel sound. All words are made up of groups of letters. Each word has groups of one, two, three, four or more.
Every word is made from syllables. Each word has one, two, three, four, or more syllables. Words having more than one syllable are called polysyllabic words.
