10. Syllable Division Rules Applied:

• Rule 1: Open Syllables: Syllables ending in a vowel sound are generally open (e.g., "con-", "ne-", "ront").
• Rule 2: Consonant Clusters: Consonant clusters are generally kept together within a syllable unless they can be naturally separated by a vowel sound (e.g., "tors-", "sion-").
• Rule 3: Vowel Groupings: Vowel groupings are separated into distinct syllables (e.g., "con-tor-").
• Rule 4: Final Consonant: A single final consonant typically closes the preceding syllable (e.g., "tor-sion-").

11. Special Considerations: The nasal vowels /ɔ̃/ and /ɛ̃/ influence syllabification by creating natural boundaries. The 'rs' cluster is treated as a single unit.

12. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations: While the standard pronunciation is as given, some regional variations might slightly alter the vowel quality, but not the syllabification.
