french stress

could someone please add stress to the French IPA transcription? I don't know how to pronounce it until I know which syllable to stress. - Torgo 21:49, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

There is, strictly spoken, no stress in French. If you want to stress anything, stress the last syllable. David 13:33, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
