In America, natives are very sensitive to accents. They might simply not recognize a word if its stress is slightly altered. Those who travel or have dealt with foreigners have gotten somewhat accustomed. And with them, it’s not so bad. But sometimes you just don’t understand how they can’t recognize something like stArbucks or AmwAy by those familiar with stArbucks (everyone) or Amway (many)? Yet, they don’t. Then you correct the stress, and – “Ah! Starbucks!”. These aren’t the best examples, but still.
