The Noun Stress Rule in English
English can be a good source of inspiration if you want to go with a crazy, weird, complicated stress system. Some affixes or affixes generally, not just suffixes, but prefixes,. whatever will cause the stress to shift. And some will not. You can have all sorts of fun and derivational morphology with this. There's even weirder things that happen like, OK, we have depart. So no change in stress. But then you add AL. It's departmental. Right?
