Vowel as Syllable Nucleus

Each syllable must contain a vowel sound, which serves as the nucleus.

  • The interfix '-ere-' doesn't have a direct phonetic realization but influences syllable division.
  • Dialectal variations in vowel pronunciation (e.g., /u:/ vs. /o:/) may affect the precise phonetic transcription.
