Vowel-Based Syllabification
Syllables are formed around vowel sounds. Consonant clusters are generally not broken unless they are easily pronounceable as separate syllables.
- The pronunciation of the final '-ent' can be silent in casual speech, but the written form dictates the syllabification.
- The 'graph' sequence could potentially be considered a single unit, but French syllabification generally favors breaking it down around the vowel.
