Tere,

I see you added a note on the accent in the Estonian language. I was wondering about the word aitäh- is it not an exception to the rule? I also read that Estonian permits quite liberally non-first-syllable-accent in internationalisms and other words of foreign (non-Estonian origin). --Jalen 21:24, 23. junij 2008 (CEST)

In words aitäh and aitüma and in exclamations ahah, ohoh etc, accent is in second syllable, they are exceptions. In non-Estonian words accent is often in same syllable like in orign language (büroo, psühholoogia, kompuuter). In old loanwords accent moved to first syllable (miljonär, apelsin, pensionär).

Thanks. I included your explanation into the article. --Jalen 22:26, 24. junij 2008 (CEST)
