Vowel Peak
Each syllable must contain a vowel sound. This is the fundamental principle guiding syllable division.
Onset Maximization
Consonant clusters are generally assigned to the onset (beginning) of a syllable whenever possible, to avoid creating syllables without vowels.
Avoid Diphthong Splitting
Diphthongs (vowel combinations) are not split across syllable boundaries, maintaining the integrity of the vowel sound.
Penultimate Stress
Primary stress typically falls on the penultimate (second-to-last) syllable, influencing the perceived prominence of certain syllables.
- The complex suffix '-onderhandelingen' requires careful analysis to identify the morphemic boundaries and apply the syllabification rules correctly.
