Penultimate Stress
Polish typically places stress on the penultimate syllable, influencing the syllable division to accommodate this stress pattern.
- Palatalization of consonants before 'i' (e.g., 'm' in 'mje', 'n' in 'nio') affects pronunciation but doesn't alter the syllable division based on orthography.
- The shibilant consonant 't͡s̑' in 'tów' is a characteristic feature of Polish phonology and is treated as a single unit within the syllable.
