How to put stress in words correctly

1. So, myth one.
   There is a myth that says that if we are talking about part of the year, then it is correct to say "quartal", and if about part of the city - "quarterAl". But that's not the case. In fact, it is correct to say “quarterAl”, no matter in what sense.

2. Learning to negotiate
   What do you need to sign a “contract” or “contract”? The first option, of course, can be used in everyday speech, but it is better to forget about using it in this form. Still. accentuation falls on the last syllable.

5. It's complicated.
   There are words that just need to be remembered. And "phenomenon" is one of those. Some dictionaries say that "phenOmen" is a purely scientific term. But when we talk about something fantastic, unusual, then both options can be used: phenomenon and phenomenon. But better still with the emphasis on the second syllable.

9. Compliments should also be made correctly.
   Girls love with their ears, which means that you need to say compliments not only beautifully, but also competently. So let's remember: in the adjective, "beautiful" stress falls on the second syllable. The same emphasis persists in both brief and comparative forms. So "beautiful," not "beautiful."
