Onset Maximization

Attempting to create syllables with maximal onsets (consonant clusters at the beginning of a syllable). For example, 'svars' instead of 's-vars'.

Sonority Sequencing Principle

Syllables tend to follow a sonority hierarchy (vowels are more sonorous than consonants). This guides the placement of consonants and vowels within syllables.

Avoidance of Stranded Consonants

Consonants are generally not left at the end of a syllable unless necessary. This principle is applied throughout the syllabification process.

  • The compound nature of the word requires careful consideration of morpheme boundaries.
  • Regional variations in pronunciation might exist, but they are unlikely to significantly alter the syllable division.
