Vowel-Consonant Alternation

French syllabification prioritizes creating syllables with alternating vowel and consonant sounds. Each vowel sound generally forms the nucleus of a syllable.

Consonant Cluster Handling

Consonant clusters are maintained as long as they are pronounceable as a unit within a syllable. Clusters are not broken unless they are exceptionally difficult to pronounce.

Final Syllable Stress

In French, stress typically falls on the last syllable of a word or phrase.

  • The double 'n' in 'frictionner' doesn't affect the syllabification, though pronunciation may vary slightly.
  • Nasal vowels (/ɔ̃/) are common in French and don't pose a challenge to syllabification.
