Maximize Onsets
Consonant clusters (e.g., 'ksj') are kept together in the onset of a syllable to maximize the number of consonants in the onset.
Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless necessary, ensuring each syllable has a vowel sound.
- The 'j' following 'u' in 'auksjons' could potentially be ambiguous, but it clearly functions as part of the onset.
- Regional variations in vowel pronunciation might exist, but do not affect syllable division.
