Similar Words
Onset Maximization
Polish prioritizes maximizing onsets by assigning consonants to the following vowel whenever possible.
Sonority Hierarchy
Consonant clusters are broken down based on the sonority hierarchy, with more sonorous sounds forming syllable nuclei.
Penultimate Stress
Polish generally stresses the penultimate syllable, but this can be overridden by suffixation.
- The cluster 'styk' is treated as a single unit due to the sonority hierarchy.
- Vowel reduction in unstressed syllables can occur, potentially affecting the perceived length of syllables, but not the syllabification itself.
