Vowel-centric Syllabification
Syllables are formed around vowel sounds, prioritizing vowel-consonant (VC) or vowel-consonant-consonant (VCC) structures.
Consonant Cluster Rule
Consonant clusters are generally maintained within a syllable unless they can be naturally broken by a vowel sound.
- The 'ie' digraph is pronounced as a diphthong /i/ and doesn't create a syllable break. The consonant cluster 'sk' is common and doesn't require special treatment.
