Maximize Onsets

Consonant clusters are generally kept together in the onset of a syllable whenever possible (e.g., 'spr-', 'st-').

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are not left as the sole element of a syllable unless necessary (e.g., 'in').

Vowel as Nucleus

Each syllable must have a vowel as its nucleus.

  • The pronunciation of 'g' can vary between [g] and [ɣ] depending on the dialect.
  • Geminate consonants (double consonants) like 'ff' are phonemically distinct and must be represented accurately.
  • The final syllable '-sjon' may be reduced in rapid speech.
