Vowel Division

Syllables are generally divided before vowels.

Maximizing Onsets

French tends to maximize onsets, but this is less relevant in this word due to the prevalence of vowel-initial syllables.

  • The 'r' sound in 'ri' doesn't create a complex onset.
  • The nasal vowel 'on' forms a closed syllable, which is standard in French.
