The consonant cluster "mm" is not typically broken in French syllabification. The "ll" is also treated as a single unit. The nasal vowel /ɔ̃/ is formed by the vowel /ɔ/ followed by the nasal consonant /n/, but the syllabification doesn't separate them.

"Remmailloterez" is exclusively the second-person plural future tense form of the verb "remmailloter". Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of the verb's conjugation.
