Avoid Breaking Consonant Clusters

Consonant clusters are generally kept together within a syllable unless they are complex.

Penultimate Stress

  • The compound nature of the word requires consideration of morphemic boundaries.
  • The 't' at the end of 'transport' can have a reduced pronunciation but influences syllable division.
  • Regional variations in vowel pronunciation may exist but do not affect syllable division.
