Maximize Onsets

Prioritizes creating syllables with consonant clusters at the beginning (onsets) whenever possible.

CV/CVC Structure

Syllables generally follow a Consonant-Vowel (CV) or Consonant-Vowel-Consonant (CVC) structure.

  • Geminate consonants (doubled consonants) lengthen the consonant sound and affect syllable weight.
  • Regional variations in vowel pronunciation may exist, but do not alter the syllable division.
