Word Parts
Onset Maximization
Polish favors maximizing onsets, meaning consonants are assigned to the following vowel whenever possible.
Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless they form a natural coda (e.g., -m, -n).
Vowel-to-Vowel Separation
Each vowel generally forms the nucleus of a separate syllable.
- The 'dw' cluster is a common initial consonant cluster in Polish and is treated as a single onset.
- Consonant clusters are frequent in Polish, and syllabification must accommodate them without breaking up natural groupings.
