• re-: /ʁə/ - Open syllable. Rule: Every vowel sound constitutes a syllable nucleus. No exceptions.
• com-: /kɔ̃/ - Closed syllable with a nasal vowel. Rule: Consonant following a vowel forms a syllable. Exception: Nasal vowels can sometimes lead to syllabic boundaries being less clear-cut, but here it's a distinct syllable.
• pa-: /pa/ - Open syllable. Rule: Every vowel sound constitutes a syllable nucleus. No exceptions.
