Vowel-Vowel Separation

Two consecutive vowels are separated into different syllables.

Consonant Cluster Handling

Consonant clusters are maintained within a syllable if they form a legal onset or coda.

Maximal Onset Principle

Onset is maximized where possible, if legal in Portuguese.

Clitic Pronoun Attachment

Clitic pronouns are attached to the verb and form a syllable of their own, often carrying the stress.

  • The geminate 'ss' is pronounced as a single /s/ sound, but the orthography maintains the double 's'.
  • The pronoun *lha* is a clitic pronoun, and its syllabification is determined by its attachment to the verb.
