Vowel-Centered Syllabification

Each syllable contains a vowel sound. This is the fundamental principle of Dutch syllabification.

Consonant Cluster Preservation

Consonant clusters are generally kept together within a syllable unless sonority allows for separation. The 'tisch' cluster is an example.

Avoidance of Diphthong Splitting

Diphthongs (like 'aa' in 'sociaal') are not broken across syllable boundaries.

  • The 'dem' cluster is a common example of a consonant cluster that could potentially be split, but is generally kept together.
  • Regional variations in pronunciation might slightly affect the perceived stress, but the core syllabification remains consistent.
