Open Syllables

Syllables ending in a vowel sound are generally open (e.g., 'ré-').

Consonant Clusters

Consonant clusters are kept together unless they can be naturally separated by a vowel sound (e.g., 'tro-').

Liaison

Liaison creates a new syllable when a consonant at the end of one word is pronounced with the vowel at the beginning of the next (e.g., 'ré-z').

Nasal Vowels

Nasal vowels form their own syllables (e.g., 'sɑ̃').

  • The pronunciation of 's' at the end of the word is silent unless followed by a vowel.
  • The degree of liaison can vary depending on the speaker and context.
  • The nasal vowels /ɛ̃/ and /ɑ̃/ are crucial to the pronunciation and syllabification.
