Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are not left isolated between vowels, ensuring each syllable has a vowel sound.

R Integration

The 'r' sound is often integrated into the preceding syllable, especially when not followed by a vowel.

  • The conditional ending '-erais' is treated as a single syllable despite containing multiple letters.
  • Regional variations in the pronunciation of the 'r' sound do not fundamentally alter the syllabification.
