Vowel Nucleus Rule

Every vowel sound forms the nucleus of a syllable.

Consonant Cluster Rule

Consonant clusters before vowels are generally broken after the first consonant if it allows for easier pronunciation.

  • The 'sk' cluster is common and doesn't pose a challenge. The long consonant 'n' affects syllable weight but not division. Regional variations might slightly reduce the vowel in 'for-'.
