Consonant Cluster Handling

Consonant clusters are maintained within a syllable unless they are complex and disrupt the natural flow of vowel sounds. The 'ill' cluster is treated as a unit.

Final Syllable Stress

  • The 'ill' cluster is a potential edge case, but is generally treated as a single unit within the syllable in this context.
  • The pronunciation of the final 's' can be silent in rapid speech, but this does not affect the syllabification.
