Vowel-Based Division

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

Consonant Cluster Rule

Consonant clusters are kept together unless they are complex and disrupt pronunciation. In this case, 'dr' is treated as a single unit.

Prefix/Suffix Rule

Prefixes and suffixes are generally treated as separate syllables if they contain a vowel sound.

  • The pronunciation of the 'r' sound can vary regionally, but this does not affect the syllabification.
  • The verb form is conditional, which influences the ending but not the core syllable structure.
