Maltz also uses the property of the glottal stop to stress the syllable 
it appears in. By the general stress rules, *wIyqIy* would be pronounced 
with stress on the *qIy,* while *wI'qIy* is stressed on the *wI'.* (He 
/could /have said it was *wIy'qIy,* but he didn't.)

    <p>Maltz also uses the property of the glottal stop to stress the
