When streams of sylables are (formally) broken up into words, is  
stress accent involved? I'm looking at cases like {dabroda} where  
both {dabro da} and {da broda} form two words with allowed  
structures. The only thing is that in the first (incorrect) example,  
the stress would be off. Would this cause problems parsing Lojban as  
spoken by speakers from languages that don't use stress accent or use  
only very weak accents, such as Japanese?
