Vowel-Ending Syllables
Syllables generally end in vowels. This rule applies to 'in', 'tro', 'ver', and 'mo'.
Consonant Cluster Break
Consonant clusters are broken after the first consonant if a vowel follows. This applies to 'ti' and 'ssi'.
- The geminate 'ss' in 'ssi' could be considered a single unit in some analyses, but the standard approach breaks it before the vowel.
- The 'ti' and 'di' combinations are often treated as single units, but are broken here for consistency.
