Onset-Rime

Polish syllabification prioritizes maximizing onsets. Consonant clusters are often part of the onset.

Vowel Reduction

Unstressed vowels may undergo reduction, affecting pronunciation but not orthographic syllable division.

  • Complex consonant clusters are common in Polish and are handled by allowing them to form the onset of a syllable.
  • Palatalization of consonants before 'i' affects pronunciation but not syllable division.
