Maximize Onsets

Consonant clusters are generally kept together at the beginning of a syllable whenever possible.

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless necessary due to vowel sequences or morphemic boundaries.

Sonority Sequencing

Syllable structure adheres to the sonority hierarchy, with sounds becoming more sonorous towards the nucleus.

  • The '-sjons-' cluster requires careful consideration to avoid creating phonotactically illegal syllables.
  • Regional variations in pronunciation might slightly affect syllable boundaries, but the core division remains consistent.
