Vowel-centric Syllabification
Syllables are formed around vowel sounds, with each syllable typically containing one vowel.
Consonant Cluster Preservation
Consonant clusters (e.g., 'st', 'gr') are generally kept together within a single syllable.
Avoidance of Single-Letter Syllables
German avoids creating syllables consisting of a single consonant.
- The 'ü' vowel requires careful pronunciation.
- The glottal stop [ʔ] may be inserted before a vowel following a consonant at the end of a syllable.
- Compounding can shift the stress pattern from the root to a later syllable.
