Vowel-Centric Syllabification

Each syllable contains a vowel sound. This is a fundamental principle of Romanian syllabification.

Consonant Cluster Resolution

Consonant clusters are broken up to minimize syllable onset complexity, adhering to sonority sequencing principles.

Stress-Timing Influence

Stress placement influences the perceived boundaries between syllables, although it doesn't directly dictate the division.

  • The 'ng' cluster (/ŋ/) is treated as a single phoneme, influencing syllabification.
  • Romanian avoids single consonants at the beginning of a syllable unless part of a cluster.
