Maximize Onset Principle

Consonant clusters are kept together at the beginning of a syllable whenever possible (e.g., 'str' in 'stridig').

Vowel Peak Principle

Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless necessary.

Genitive 's' Rule

The genitive marker 's' always forms its own syllable.

  • The 'tts' cluster is permissible but relatively uncommon.
  • Regional variations in vowel pronunciation may exist but do not affect syllable division.
  • The compound nature of the word influences stress placement.
