No, they aren't. French puts the stress generally at the end of the word (vs languages like Spanish where the stress varies but is fixed and can't be used by the speaker to emphasize anything)

What? I'm pretty sure "no stress anywhere" is right. (I did play a few words in my head to check, but really, syllable stress is just a foreign concept in french.)

It's a foreign concept in French because in French it's always on the last syllable, so you don't have to think about it.
