In writing and in speech, със is also used as a stressed form of с, even before words not beginning with с or з, as in със или без твоя помощ ― sǎs ili bez tvoja pomošt ― with or without your help. In verse, със can also be used in front of words not starting with с or з in order to maintain the syllable structure of the line.
