According to their accentuation, the words can also be:

• Graves: The stressed syllable is the penultimate. For example: table.
• Esdrújulas: The tonic syllable is the penultimate syllable. For example: telephone.
• Sobreesdrújulas. The stressed syllable is the one before the penultimate. For example: open it to me.

Exceptions

There are sharp words that do not end in N, S, or a vowel, but still have an accent. This is because in the word there is a hiatus, that is, a closed vowel (i, u) stressed next to an open vowel (a, e, o). Hiatuses are always written with a tilde. For example: root.
