10. Syllable Analysis & Division Rules:

Here's a detailed breakdown of each syllable:

• tra: /tɾa/ - Open syllable. Rule: Vowel-consonant combination. No exceptions.
• nqui: /ŋki/ - Closed syllable. Rule: Consonant cluster followed by a vowel. Potential exception: The 'qu' digraph is treated as a single unit for syllabification.
• li: /li/ - Open syllable. Rule: Vowel-consonant combination. No exceptions.
• za: /θa/ - Open syllable. Rule: Consonant-vowel combination. The 'z' is pronounced as a voiceless dental fricative /θ/ in Spain.

• is: /is/ - Closed syllable. Rule: Vowel-consonant combination. No exceptions.

The 'qu' digraph is treated as a single unit for syllabification, even though it represents two letters. The pronunciation of 'z' as /θ/ in Spain is a regional variation that doesn't affect syllabification.

12. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

In Latin America, 'z' is typically pronounced as /s/. This doesn't alter the syllable division.
