Vowel-centric Syllabification

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

Consonant Cluster Treatment

Consonant clusters like 'sj' are treated as a single onset, avoiding syllable breaks within them.

Nasal Vowel Syllabification

Nasal vowels (ɔ̃, ɛ̃) form the nucleus of a syllable, with the 'n' considered part of the vowel's articulation, not a separate consonant.

  • The 'sj' cluster is a common feature and is treated as a single unit.
  • Nasal vowels require careful consideration as the 'n' is not a separate consonant.
  • Liaison is possible but doesn't affect the core syllabification.
