Maximizing Onsets

Prioritize creating syllables with onsets (consonant sounds before the vowel).

Sonority Hierarchy

Syllable boundaries tend to occur between sounds of decreasing sonority.

Complex Onset Resolution

Italian allows for complex onsets (e.g., 'stj'), which are treated as single units.

  • The 'stj' cluster is a common exception to the simple CV structure, but it's a well-defined pattern in Italian.
