Maximize Onsets
Consonant clusters are generally kept together at the beginning of a syllable (e.g., 'op', 'po').
Vowel Quality
Syllable boundaries are often determined by changes in vowel quality.
Sonority Sequencing Principle
Syllables tend to follow a sonority hierarchy, with higher sonority elements (vowels) being the nucleus.
- The 'sj' digraph is treated as a single phoneme /ʃ/.
- Vowel reduction may occur in unstressed syllables, but does not affect syllable division.
- Regional variations in pronunciation might slightly alter the phonetic realization of vowels, but not the core syllable structure.
