Open Syllable Preference

Romanian favors syllables ending in vowels.

Consonant-Vowel Pattern

A consonant followed by a vowel creates a syllable boundary.

Avoidance of Single Initial Consonants

Consonants are generally not left alone to begin a syllable unless part of a cluster.

  • The 'h' in 'hidro-' is often silent but initiates the syllable.
  • The tapped 'r' sound /ɾ/ is a characteristic of Romanian pronunciation.
