Vowel-Based Division

Syllables are generally formed around vowel sounds, creating open syllables where possible.

Avoid Breaking Consonant Clusters

Consonant clusters are kept together unless they are complex or involve a sonorant consonant. The 'nes' cluster is maintained.

Penultimate Stress

French words ending in a schwa (e.g., '-e') are typically stressed on the penultimate syllable.

  • The pronunciation of the 's' between the two 'e's is crucial and creates a distinct syllable.
  • The final '-gie' syllable is a standard ending in French scientific terminology.
