5. Phonetic Transcription:

6. Syllable Breakdown & Rule Application:

• na-: /na/ - Open syllable. Rule: Syllables are formed around vowel sounds. No consonant clusters to break.
• tio-: /sjɔ/ - Closed syllable. Rule: Consonant 's' follows the vowel 'i', creating a closed syllable.
• na-: /na/ - Open syllable. Rule: Similar to the first syllable, vowel sound dictates the syllable boundary.
• li-: /li/ - Open syllable. Rule: Vowel 'i' forms the nucleus of the syllable.
• se-: /zə/ - Open syllable. Rule: Vowel 'e' forms the nucleus.

7. Edge Case Review:

The 's' between 'tio' and 'na' could potentially be considered part of either syllable, but French generally prefers to keep consonant clusters within a syllable if possible, especially when the vowel sounds are distinct. The silent 't' at the end doesn't affect syllabification, but it's important to note for pronunciation.
