• Rule 3: Penultimate Stress: Italian words are often stressed on the penultimate syllable, unless specific rules dictate otherwise.
• Rule 4: Prefix/Suffix Separation: Prefixes and suffixes generally form separate syllables (e.g., ri-ca-pi-to-le-ran-no).

11. Special Considerations:

The linking vowel '-l-' doesn't create a separate syllable; it's integrated into the preceding syllable. Regional variations in pronunciation might affect vowel quality but not syllable division.
