Consonant clusters are generally kept together unless a vowel sound naturally separates them.

Nasal Vowels

Nasal vowels form their own distinct syllables.

  • The pronunciation of the uvular 'r' sound can be challenging for non-native speakers and may affect perceived syllable boundaries.
  • The silent 'e' at the end of the word influences the pronunciation of the preceding syllable but does not create a separate syllable.
