Open Syllable Preference

Romanian favors syllable divisions that create open syllables (ending in a vowel).

Consonant Cluster Handling

Consonant clusters are generally kept together within a syllable unless they are complex or occur across morpheme boundaries.

Palatalization

The consonants 'g' and 'c' are palatalized before 'e' and 'i', influencing pronunciation but not syllable division.

  • The hyphenated structure of the compound word is respected during syllabification.
  • Palatalization of 'g' and 'c' before 'e' is a common phonetic feature but doesn't alter the syllable division rules.
