Onset-Rime Principle
Syllables are formed around a nucleus (vowel), with optional onsets (consonants before the nucleus) and codas (consonants after the nucleus).
Maximizing Onsets
Consonants are assigned to onsets whenever possible, avoiding excessive consonant clusters in the coda.
Diphthong Treatment
Diphthongs (like 'om') form a single nucleus.
- The compound nature of the word influences stress placement.
