Onset Maximization
Consonant clusters (e.g., 'im-') are kept together at the beginning of syllables.
Vowel Peak Principle
Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.
Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless they form part of a consonant cluster.
- The initial 'ps' cluster requires careful consideration.
- Vowel reduction in unstressed syllables affects the phonetic realization.
- The pronunciation of 'im-' as a single syllable or 'i-m' is possible, but 'im-' is preferred here.
