Sounds, stress, vowel length, and marked consonants in Slovak.
Slovak normally stresses the first syllable of a word.
Native Slovak generally avoids two successive long syllables.
Acute marks make vowels longer and can distinguish words.
The letters č, š, ž, ď, ť, ň, and ľ represent distinct consonants.
Learn the letters, diacritics, and ch as one Slovak digraph.
