Consonant Clusters

Consonant clusters are often maintained within a syllable, especially initial clusters (e.g., 'plas').

Clitic Pronoun Attachment

Clitic pronouns are treated as part of the verb complex and syllabified accordingly (e.g., 'lhe').

Penultimate Stress

Words ending in vowels, 'n', or 's' are generally stressed on the penultimate syllable.

  • The palatalization of 'l' before 'i' in some regional dialects does not affect the underlying syllabic structure.
  • The attachment of the clitic pronoun 'lhe' could theoretically allow for separation, but it's typically treated as part of the verb complex for syllabification.
