Maximize Onsets

Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are generally not left at the end of a syllable unless necessary due to vowel sequences or morphological boundaries.
- The 'sj' cluster is treated as a single onset.
- Long vowels influence syllable weight and can affect stress patterns.
- Compound word structure can sometimes override the general rule of initial stress.
