Onset Maximization

Consonant clusters are included in the onset whenever possible (e.g., 'eks', 'sop').

Vowel Peak Principle

Each syllable contains a vowel sound.

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are not left isolated between syllables unless part of a permissible cluster.

  • Regional variations in vowel pronunciation may exist, but do not affect syllabification.
  • The geminate consonant /pː/ in 'sopp' does not pose a syllabification challenge.
