Vowel-centric Syllabification

Each vowel sound generally forms the nucleus of a syllable.

Diphthong Integrity

Diphthongs (like 'ij') are treated as a single vowel sound and are not split across syllables.

Consonant Cluster Handling

Consonant clusters are generally maintained within a syllable unless they are easily separable based on pronunciation.

Morpheme Boundary Consideration

Syllable boundaries often align with morpheme boundaries, but this is not a strict rule.

  • The 'ij' diphthong requires special attention as it represents a single vowel sound.
  • Regional variations in pronunciation might affect the precise realization of vowel sounds, but the core syllabification remains consistent.
