Adopt the rule that regular stress falls on the vowel before the last consonant of a word, excepting the endings -as, -âs, -en, -ent, -eux, -ic and -ilor, which are unstressed. Stress which deviates from the above rule is marked according to the established conventions (namely: the vowel e always takes the acute é; the vowel o always takes the circumflex ô; the vowels a, i, u take the grave à, ì, ù when final and the acute á, í, ú elsewhere; vowels already bearing a diacritic affecting pronunciation are left unchanged). Stressed monosyllables also take a written accent (e.g. là [la] "there" vs. la [lë] "the"). Any given word may have only one written diacritic indicating stress (so e.g. esclávátx becomes esclavátx). (The feminine ending -â remains unchanged.)

The digraphs th and tg are swapped, so that th corresponds to Þ and tg to Ð. This choice is based on both frequency (þ occurs much more often than ð) and aesthetics (th looks both prettier and more "natural" to speakers of English and most European languages). The only commonly used word in Talossan English which is affected is glhetg, which becomes glheth -- which is much better looking, and will likely help prevent hideous mispronunciations such as "glep" from non-Talossan speakers.

To put it simply, can a casual reader or inexperienced student tell from seeing a Talossan word how it would be pronounced-with all the tics and wilful eccentricities imposed on the language?
