Vowel-Centered Syllabification
Syllables are formed around a vowel, with consonants assigned to the adjacent syllable based on phonotactic constraints.
Onset and Coda Preference
Polish prefers to maximize onsets (consonants at the beginning of a syllable) and codas (consonants at the end of a syllable) within permissible limits.
Consonant Cluster Breaking
Consonant clusters are often broken after the first consonant, unless they form a single phoneme (e.g., 'cz').
- The 'cz' cluster is treated as a single unit in syllabification.
- Vowel reduction in unstressed syllables is common but doesn't affect syllable division.
