I¡¯ll transfer you to someone in the billing department.
=======================
In this sentence how do you pronounce 'transfer'? Do we put the stress on the first syllable or the last syllable? According to the dictionary, the primary stress is on the last syllable. However, many seem to stress the first syllable when the word 'transfer' is used as a verb.

I've heard it pronounced both ways. It seems that American English pronunciation is with the stress on the first syllable, while in British pronunciation, the second syllable is stressed.
