10. Division Rules:

• Vowel-centric Syllabification: Dutch prioritizes vowels. Each vowel sound generally forms the nucleus of a syllable.
• Consonant Cluster Handling: Consonant clusters are generally kept together within a syllable unless they are easily separable (e.g., 'st', 'sp').
• Digraph Preservation: Digraphs (like 'ch', 'sch') are not split across syllable boundaries.
• Compound Word Syllabification: Compound words are syllabified as if they were separate words, then combined.

11. Special Considerations:

The 'ie' digraph in "financieel" is a diphthong and forms a single syllable. The 'sch' in "technische" is a single consonant cluster and remains within the syllable.

12. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

Regional variations in vowel pronunciation exist in Dutch, but they don't significantly alter the syllabification. Some speakers might pronounce the 'ie' in "financieel" slightly differently, but it remains a single syllable.
