Onset Maximization

Polish prefers to maximize the number of consonants in the onset of a syllable, as seen in 'prze' and 'ście'.

Avoidance of Stranded Consonants

Consonants are generally not left as single-consonant syllable onsets unless absolutely necessary.

Vowel-Based Division

Syllables are primarily divided around vowels, creating open syllables where possible.

Consonant Clusters

Complex consonant clusters are broken down based on sonority and phonotactic constraints.

  • The 'rz' cluster is treated as a single phoneme.
  • Vowel reduction in unstressed syllables can occur, potentially affecting the perceived length of syllables, but not the syllabification itself.
