LIST OR WORDS CAN BE AS NOUN AND VERB
For many two-syllable English words, the noun form is stressed on the first syllable, while the verb form is stressed on the second syllable. However, some words have a different rule, such as changing the final consonant sound from a voiceless /s/ to a voiced /z/ sound when used as a verb. The best way to confirm the pronunciation of a specific word is to look it up in an online dictionary and listen to its audio.
STRESS-BASED RULE
- Noun: Stress is on the first syllable (e.g., CONduct, OBject, REbel).
- Verb: Stress is on the second syllable (e.g., conDUCT, obJECT, reBEL).
This rule applies to words like record, present, project, and insult
