Common mistakes with stress Made by natives
Normally, when we face with issue of choosing the right way to say the word, we just use the special dictionary — orphoepic dictionaries. It includes all or vast majority of the words with proper stress postion
No one except the linguistic experts refers to the rules in this respect. We just keep it in mind.
A lot of people say звOнит instead of звонИт (he calls), дOговор instead of договOр (contract), тортЫ instead of тОрты (cakes) etc.

The classic orphoepic reference is the dictionay written by Р. И. Аванесова.
