Onset Maximization

Vowel Peak

Consonant Clusters
Consonant clusters are generally maintained within a syllable unless they are exceptionally complex or break a phonotactic rule.
- Regional variations in pronunciation might subtly affect perceived syllable boundaries, but the written syllable division remains consistent.
- The 'st' cluster and 'ngs' cluster are common and do not pose syllable division issues.
