Onset-Rime

Each syllable is divided into an onset (initial consonant(s)) and a rime (vowel and any following consonants).

Maximize Open Syllables

Syllable division prioritizes creating open syllables (ending in a vowel), but this can be overridden to maintain morphemic integrity.

  • The complex morphology of the word requires careful application of syllabification rules.
  • The suffix '-elor' is a common but complex element that needs accurate syllabification.
  • The consonant cluster '-rgu-' is an example where maximizing open syllables is overridden to preserve the root.
