Vowel-Centric Syllabification
Romanian prioritizes vowels as syllable nuclei. Each syllable generally contains one vowel.
Consonant Cluster Resolution
Consonant clusters are broken according to sonority, with more sonorous sounds tending to initiate a new syllable. In this case, the 'st' cluster is resolved by placing 's' within the 'mas' syllable.
Penultimate Stress
