Latin

==== Stress ====
There are two rules that define which syllable is [[Stress (linguistics)|stressed]] in Classical Latin.<ref name="Wheelock 7th ed." />

# In a word with only two syllables, the emphasis will be on the first syllable.
# In a word with more than two syllables, there are two cases.
#* If the second-to-last syllable is long, that syllable will have stress.
#* If the second-to-last syllable is not long, the syllable before that one will be stressed instead.<ref name="Wheelock 7th ed." />
