Onset Preference

Polish favors maximizing onsets (consonants at the beginning of a syllable).

Coda Complexity

Polish allows for complex consonant clusters in codas (consonants at the end of a syllable).

Avoid Breaking Clusters

Consonant clusters are generally not broken unless they are exceptionally difficult to pronounce.

Vowel-centric Syllables

Each syllable must contain a vowel.

  • The complex consonant clusters (*chrześcija*, *-ść*) required careful consideration to avoid incorrect syllable division.
  • The word's length and multiple affixations increase the complexity of the analysis.
