Re: [lojban] Default stressed vowel




My view on stress is slightly different. I consider stress an irrelevant feature for cmevla (as well as for cmavo, in most cases), so for example "zoi .páris. whatever .parís." is valid, because "páris" and "parís" is one and the same Lojban word. Then any rules on how to stress cmevla are just personal preferences, and should not be given any official or mandatory status. 

So the only relevant part for me, and with which I agree, is this:

Which vowel or syllabic consonant is stressed by default is independent of
where one puts syllable breaks. If you say "spatrxapio" with the last two
letters in different syllables, you still have to stress the 'a', not the 'i'.
Similarly, if you say "krata,igo", you stress it "kratá,igo".

 This is important because otherwise in some cases you get the wrong parse.
