Portuguese syllable division prioritizes vowel sounds, with each vowel generally forming a syllable nucleus.

Consonant cluster splitting

Consonant clusters are generally split to maximize onsets, but only if the resulting onset is legal in Portuguese.

Maximal Onset Principle

The Maximal Onset Principle is applied, with consideration for Portuguese phonotactics.

Clitic pronoun treatment

Clitic pronouns are treated as separate syllables.

  • The *auto-* prefix is often treated as a single prosodic unit, but is syllabified based on vowel sequences.
  • The *lhes* clitic pronoun is a relatively fixed unit and its syllabification is straightforward.
  • The combination of a verb form with clitic pronouns is common in Portuguese and doesn't introduce unusual syllabification challenges.
  • The presence of the suffix *-izar* is standard and follows typical syllabification patterns.
