Answer to Question 2
It is very important to pronounce medical words with the same or very similar sounds to convey their correct meaning. One mispronounced syllable can change the meaning of a medical word.
Accent marks are used to indicate stress on certain syllables. A single accent mark is called a primary accent and is used with the syllable that has the strongest stress. A double accent is called a secondary accent and is used on syllables that are stressed less than primary syllables.
Diacritics are marks placed over or under vowels to indicate the long or short sound of the vowel. The macron ( ) shows the long sound of the vowel, the breve () shows the short sound of the vowel, and the schwa () indicates the uncolored, central vowel sound of most unstressed syllables.
