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

Consonant Cluster Preservation

Consonant clusters are maintained unless they are complex and involve a sonorant consonant. This prevents unnecessary syllable breaks.

Diphthong Treatment

Diphthongs (like 'oy' in 'toy') are treated as single syllable units, as they function as a single vowel sound.

  • The 'oi' diphthong is treated as a single syllable unit.
  • The consonant cluster 'nt' is generally not broken.
  • French stress is typically on the final syllable of a phrase or breath group.
