Okay, so I've listened to a bunch of recordings and I think I finally understand, maybe.
I was saying ABaCUS, rhyming cus with fuss. Most readers say ABacus, with some putting just a little stress on cus but not enough to count. You are saying my rhyme should be with the middle syllable? Or the acus. Or really that abacus doesn't fit there at all?
This is the same thing I did with escapades, I hear it with a stress on first and last syllables. That's one of the reasons I need you folks.
