Vowel-Vowel Separation
When two vowels appear consecutively, they are generally separated into different syllables (e.g., *au*, *to*).
Consonant-Vowel Separation
A consonant typically belongs to the syllable following it (e.g., *no*, *zar*, *mos*).
Maximizing Onset
The onset is maximized when possible, but only if the resulting onset is legal in Portuguese phonology.
Clitic Pronoun Treatment
Clitic pronouns like *-nos* form a separate syllable.
- The sequence *-izar* is a common suffix and is consistently treated as a single morphological unit, influencing the syllable division.
- The enclitic pronoun *-nos* is treated as a separate syllable, even though it's attached to the verb.
- The linking of *-nos* and *-emos* creates a slight elision, represented by the tie /‿/ in the IPA transcription, but doesn't affect the orthographic syllable division.
