The video tutorial explains the tremor accent in French, also known as 'tréma'. It describes its appearance as two dots over vowels, typically 'e', 'i', or 'u', and its role in altering pronunciation by ensuring both vowels in a pair are pronounced separately. Examples include words like 'naïve' and 'Noël'. The tutorial also notes the rarity of the tremor accent and concludes with a brief mention of other French accents.
