Vowel-Based Division

Syllables are generally formed around vowel sounds. Each vowel sound typically forms the nucleus of a syllable.

Consonant Cluster Handling

Consonant clusters are kept together unless they can be naturally separated by a vowel sound. In 'priv-', the 'pr' cluster remains together.

Final Syllable Stress

French typically stresses the final syllable of a phrase or breath group. This influences the perception of syllable boundaries.

  • The pronunciation of the 'r' sound can vary regionally (uvular fricative).
  • The nasal vowel /ɛ̃/ can have slight variations in pronunciation.
  • Liaison possibilities with preceding words do not affect the internal syllabification.
