3. provinsie – Stress falls on -sie
QUESTION 2
Yes, the two sentences do convey different meanings, based on the placement of
stress (bolded words in italics):
1. Het jy die deur gesluit?
Stress on "jy"
This stresses who closed the door.
It implies surprise or doubt that you (and not someone else) did it.
Meaning: Did you close the door (not someone else)?
2. Het jy die deur gesluit?
Stress on "deur"
This stresses what was closed.
It suggests the speaker is asking for clarification—maybe the window or gate
was closed, but they want to know if it was specifically the door.
Meaning: Did you close the door (not something else)?
Summary
Stress on "jy" → focuses on the person who closed it.
Stress on "deur" → focuses on what was closed.
