2) If there are suffixes, then the syllable ending in "n" is stressed: "su-'a-vi-BON-dos" (failure).
The "syllable ending in 'n'" should be the "final syllable of the stem", which precedes the 'n' which separates the stem from the suffixes.
Other syllables ending in 'n' are the final syllables of disjuncts, but those syllables are never stressed.
