Maximize Onsets

Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless necessary (e.g., 'bne').
- The 'nd' cluster in the final syllable can be reduced in rapid speech, but the full form is standard.
- Geminate consonant /mː/ is phonologically significant and must be maintained.
