Onset Maximization
Consonant clusters are kept together at the beginning of a syllable as much as possible.
Vowel Peak Principle
Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.
Sonority Sequencing Principle
Syllables generally follow a sonority hierarchy (vowels are more sonorous than consonants).
- Regional variations in the pronunciation of 'r' (tap or trill) do not affect syllable division.
- The 'j' sound can be challenging for non-native speakers but doesn't alter syllabification.
