we dont learn to accentuate in America, not in public school at least
if you don't speak English as a first language, you prolly had to study it and stressed the specifics more than us. I learned more specifics while learning Spanish in high school than I did about the English language.

In school they teach you mostly spelling throughout, which are words you all know if you have ever picked up a real book before, then stop in high school right before you get to anything difficult,
vainly attempt to reteach correct grammer to you in the middle grades (realizing your previous teachers did not, by listening to everyone in the class making the same mistakes [and if you are a kid who changed schools alot and somehow missed what seems like an entire two grades, the teacher gives just you a grammer book, and makes you study it for a month until you know what you should already know] and even if you been in the same school system forever your teachers are always asking the class that famous question "didnt your other teachers already teach you ( -insert basic principle here- (correct grammer, PEMDAS, homonyms, proper grammer, multiplication tables!)?"
then you move onto literature, that no one truly understands, unless you read alot on your own. then i dont know what comes next since i havent graduated high school yet, but dont worry i turned out all right after all, i know i am smart, but i dont know who i owe that too, if anyone at all besides myself and my genes and maybe a few people that you meet, that are role models.
