Maximize Onsets

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

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless necessary (e.g., 'kas' ends with 's').

Vowel-centric Syllabification

Each syllable must contain a vowel sound. This is the fundamental principle guiding syllable division.

  • The 'ss' cluster is treated as a single consonant in terms of syllable weight.
  • Regional variations in vowel pronunciation may exist, but do not significantly alter the syllable division.
