Vowel-Based Syllabification
French syllabification prioritizes vowel sounds. Each vowel typically forms the nucleus of a syllable.
Consonant Cluster Rule
Consonant clusters are generally kept intact within a syllable unless they are non-pronouncing or disrupt the flow of vowel sounds.
Nasal Vowel Rule
The consonant following a nasal vowel typically belongs to the following syllable.
- The presence of nasal vowels influences syllabification, as the following consonant often belongs to the next syllable.
- Liaison possibilities (linking the final consonant of one word to the initial vowel of the next) do not affect the internal syllabification of 'recombinassions' itself.
