Vowel-centric Syllabification

Syllables are formed around vowel sounds. Each vowel (or diphthong) typically forms the nucleus of a syllable.

Consonant Cluster Rule

Consonants following a vowel belong to the next syllable unless they form a cluster that cannot begin a syllable. Consonant clusters at the end of a word typically close the syllable.

  • The uvular 'r' sound can influence perception but doesn't alter syllabification rules.
  • Nasal vowels are treated as single syllable units.
