Vowel-Based Division
Syllables are formed around vowel sounds. Each vowel sound generally constitutes a syllable.
Consonant Cluster Handling
Consonant clusters are maintained within a syllable unless they are complex and span syllable boundaries. 'br' is maintained as a single unit.
Final Consonant Rule
French generally avoids ending syllables with consonants other than /ʁ/, /z/, /ʒ/, /l/, and /n/. The 't' in 'trait' is permissible as it's followed by a vowel in the next syllable.
- The nasal vowel /ɛ̃/ influences the syllabification, creating a distinct syllable boundary.
- The repeated /ʁ/ sound is common in French and doesn't pose a significant syllabification challenge.
