-nościami

Maximize Onsets
Polish prefers to create syllables with consonant onsets whenever possible, avoiding vowel-initial syllables unless necessary.
Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are generally not left as the sole element of a syllable, unless they form a permissible single-consonant coda.
Penultimate Stress
Polish generally stresses the penultimate syllable, but this can be affected by suffixation and word length.
- The 'szcz' consonant cluster is a common and permissible sequence in Polish, and is treated as a single unit within the syllable.
- Palatalization of consonants can influence syllable structure, as seen in the 'ści' syllable.
- The complex morphology of Polish requires careful consideration of morpheme boundaries when determining syllable divisions.
