Romanian favors syllables ending in vowels. Syllables are formed to maximize open syllables.

Diphthongs like 'mă' are treated as single vowel nuclei, forming a single syllable.

Consonant Cluster Resolution

Consonant clusters are broken up based on sonority, but common clusters are often left intact.

  • The 'nt' cluster in 'an-te' is a common initial cluster and doesn't pose a significant syllabification challenge.
  • The diphthong 'mă' is treated as a single syllable nucleus, which is standard in Romanian phonology.
