Spanish Accent Marks Explained by Varun Gopal is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Accent marks in Spanish, representing emphasis in pronunciation, follow specific rules. Accents mark stressed syllables and differentiate identical words with different meanings. The rules can be difficult for non-native speakers but generally, words ending in vowels or "n" or "s" are stressed on the second-to-last syllable while others are stressed on the last. Exceptions require accents. Accents also differentiate between singular/plural forms and help pronounce diphthongs and the letter ñ. Keyboard codes
