6. Edge Case Review:

• Vowel Peak Principle: Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.
• Sonority Sequencing Principle: Sonority decreases from the syllable onset to the coda.

11. Special Considerations:

The word is a compound, and the syllable division reflects the boundaries between the morphemes. The "l" in "veksel" is a potential point of division, but it's typically included in the onset due to its sonority.
