Sonority Sequencing Principle
Syllables tend to follow a sonority hierarchy, with vowels being more sonorous than consonants.

- Regional variations in vowel pronunciation may exist, but do not affect syllable division.
- The word is a relatively fixed compound, so syllabification and stress remain consistent.
