Vowel as Nucleus

Each syllable must have a vowel as its nucleus.

Gemination Rule

Geminate consonants lengthen the preceding vowel.

  • The compound nature of the word requires careful consideration of morphemic boundaries.
  • The 'j' sound is often palatalized, but this doesn't affect syllabification.
