Open Syllable Preference
Dutch favors creating open syllables (ending in a vowel) whenever possible. This rule is applied throughout the syllabification process.

Consonant clusters are generally kept together unless they are complex and difficult to pronounce. This is observed in syllables like 'rech' and 'rap'.
Penultimate Stress
