Onset Maximization
Consonant clusters are grouped at the beginning of syllables whenever possible (e.g., 'te', 'le', 'ko').
Avoidance of Syllable-Final Consonant Clusters
Consonant clusters are broken up to avoid leaving consonants stranded at the end of a syllable (e.g., 'ka-sjon' instead of 'kas-jon').
Vowel-Centric Syllabification
Each syllable must contain a vowel sound, ensuring a clear vowel-consonant structure.
- Regional variations in vowel pronunciation may exist, but the syllable division remains consistent.
- The word's function as a noun dictates the stress pattern; adjectival use would not alter the syllabification.
