Accentuation on the penultimate vowel

Newbie here: I’ve always been told that Spanish accent is usually on the penultimate vowel, and only the exceptions need an explicit tilde mark.

However, there are conjugations, like actuéis where the accent mark is on the penultimate vowel. I would have thought that the accent wasn’t needed anymore. Any place I could go to with a fuller explanation?

Thanks.

How is it the sentence “Dónde tienes el dinero” is translated as an exclamation instead of an interrogatory?In English, to ask a question a compound verb is split into “do/have/are etc. -pronoun- root verb form. The use of exclamation points instead of question marks does not make sense.

Asistir meaning "to assist"?

Hello! I was always taught that "asistir" was a false cognate to "assist" (to aid/help) in English. My understanding was that "asistir a" means "to attend," either attending an event/school, etc. or to wait on someone. Can you please clarify whether "asistir" in fact can be used to mean "to assist"? Thank you!
