Word Parts
Onset Maximization
Polish prefers to include as many consonants as possible in the onset of a syllable, as seen in 'cen-ty'.
Avoidance of Stranded Consonants
Consonants are generally not left at the end of a syllable unless they form part of a diphthong or are followed by a sonorant.
Vowel-Based Division
Syllables are primarily divided around vowels.
- The nasal vowels /ɔ̃/ and /ɛ̃/ require careful consideration.
- The *nie-* prefix can sometimes reduce to *ni-* in rapid speech, but this doesn't affect the syllabification.
