Vowel-Initial Syllable

Syllables generally begin with a vowel sound. This rule is applied to 'in', 'na', and 'sjɔ'.

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless they form part of a consonant cluster. This rule is applied throughout the word.

Penultimate Stress

Stress falls on the penultimate syllable when the final syllable contains a schwa (or is silent).

  • The silent 's' at the end of the word does not affect the syllabification.
  • The consonant clusters require careful application of the 'Avoid Stranded Consonants' rule.
