Maximize Onsets
The syllable division attempts to include as many consonants as possible in the onset of each syllable. This is evident in 'ska' and 'slag'.
Avoid Stranded Consonants
No consonant is left isolated as the only element of a syllable. This is why 'nda' is not divided as 'n-da'.
Vowel as Syllable Nucleus
Each syllable contains a vowel that serves as its nucleus.

What is hyphenation
Hyphenation is the use of hyphens to join words or parts of words. It plays a crucial role in writing, ensuring clarity and readability.
In compound terms like 'check-in', the hyphen clarifies relationships between words. It also assists in breaking words at line ends, preserving flow and understanding, such as in 'tele-communication'. Hyphenation rules vary; some words lose their hyphens with common usage (e.g., 'email' from 'e-mail'). It's an evolving aspect of language, with guidelines differing across style manuals. Understanding hyphenation improves writing quality, making it an indispensable tool in effective communication.
