I went through the conjunctions and prepositions listed in the Ambar Eldaron Quenya Dictionary [1] and the Omikhleia Sindarin Dictionary [2] and added all the ones with a single light syllable to the list as unstressed (with one exception). I think this improves the way some texts are read a little bit (though I have to admit I find it hard to tell the difference).
