Diphthong Rule

Diphthongs (combinations of two vowels within the same syllable) are treated as a single syllable.

Consonant Cluster Rule

Certain consonant clusters (like 'lhar') are treated as a single unit within a syllable.

Hiatus Rule

When two vowels appear consecutively without forming a diphthong, they create a hiatus and are separated into different syllables.

  • The enclitic pronoun 'vos' is a special case, attached to the verb but maintaining its own syllabic identity.
  • The 'gued' sequence requires careful consideration of vowel-consonant combinations.
