Vowel-Based Division

Syllables are generally divided between vowels (e.g., com-pa).

Consonant Cluster Division

When a consonant cluster occurs between vowels, the cluster is usually split, keeping the vowel sounds separate (e.g., ter-ni).

Penultimate Stress

Words ending in a vowel are stressed on the penultimate syllable unless otherwise indicated by an accent mark (e.g., ni-da).

  • The linking vowel '-ni-' is a common feature in Spanish morphology, facilitating the connection between the root and the suffix. This doesn't affect syllabification but is important for understanding the word's structure.
