Polish allows for relatively complex codas (consonant clusters at the end of a syllable).
Vowel-Centric

Avoid Breaking Clusters
Consonant clusters are generally kept intact within a syllable unless they are exceptionally long or difficult to pronounce.
- The 'w' sound can sometimes be a glide, but in this word, it functions as a consonant within the syllable.
- Palatalization of consonants (indicated by the 'ʲ' in the IPA) affects pronunciation but doesn't alter the syllable division.
