chaza

the emphasis is on the penultimate syllable (last but one), like in most Polish words

uDAwał się
poWIEdział
CHOdzić
Ona chce

się and chce are separate words and don't change the stress in the preceeding words

is that what you were asking about?

Try this program IVONA(click here), just type the word you need in and she will pronounce it for you and generally the emphasis is on the second last syllable.
