10. Division Rules:

• Onset Maximization: Consonant clusters are generally assigned to the onset of the following syllable whenever possible.

• Sonority Sequencing: Syllable structure follows the sonority sequencing principle, with sounds decreasing in sonority from the syllable onset to the coda.

11. Special Considerations:

Regional variations in pronunciation might affect the precise realization of vowels, but the core syllabification remains consistent.

12. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

Some dialects might slightly reduce the vowel in the first syllable ("praksis") or pronounce the 'r' more strongly. However, these variations do not significantly alter the syllable division.
