Vowel Nucleus Rule
Syllables are formed around vowel nuclei. Each syllable must contain one vowel sound.
Consonant Cluster Rule
Consonant clusters are generally broken after the first consonant if a vowel follows, unless the cluster is permissible at the beginning of a syllable (e.g., 'st').
- The 'st' cluster in 'post-' is a common initial consonant cluster and doesn't pose a syllabification challenge.
- The long vowel /oː/ in 'mo-' is typical and doesn't affect the division.
