Vowel-Based Division

Syllables are formed around vowel sounds, creating open or closed syllables.

Consonant Cluster Handling

Consonant clusters are maintained within a syllable unless they are exceptionally complex, as seen in 'sion'.

Nasal Vowel Preservation

Nasal vowels form the nucleus of their own syllables, influencing the syllable structure.

  • The double 'n' in 'dimension' does not necessitate syllable separation.
  • The nasal vowels require careful consideration in syllable division.
  • The final syllable receives the primary stress, a common feature of French pronunciation.
