Stress in a name
Stress in a word often falls on the last syllable (stress shown in bold below).
kapı = door
araba = car
pazar = market, bazaar
Pazar = Sunday (= market day)
With composite words, one of the sub-parts can take the stress:
Pazartesi = Monday (literally: Pazar + ertesi = the day after Sunday)
güzel = beatiful
güzellik = beauty
güzelliğin = your beauty
güzelliğinden = from your beauty
In proper names such as city and country names, the second last syllable mostly takes the stress:
Istanbul
İzmir
Edirne
Nikaragua
İngiltere
Yugoslavya
but:
Ankara
