Vowel-Centered Syllables

Syllables are formed around vowel sounds. Each vowel (or diphthong) typically forms the nucleus of a syllable.

Consonant Cluster Avoidance

Consonant clusters are not broken unless they are pronounced as separate syllables. 'ss' is treated as a single sound.

Nasal Vowel Treatment

Nasal vowels ('on' in this case) are treated as single vowel sounds for syllabification.

  • The 'ss' cluster is not broken as it represents a single sound.
  • The nasal vowel 'on' is treated as a single syllable nucleus.
  • French stress is generally less prominent than in English.
