Morpheme Boundaries
Syllable division often respects morpheme boundaries, separating prefixes, roots, and suffixes.
- The 'g' sound /ɣ/ can be challenging for non-native speakers, but doesn't affect syllabification.
- The voicing of 'd' between vowels /ð/ is a phonetic variation that doesn't alter the syllable structure.
