Vowel-centric Syllabification
Romanian prioritizes vowels as syllable nuclei. Each syllable contains a vowel sound.
Onset Maximization
Consonant clusters are maximized within the onset of a syllable whenever possible (e.g., 'd͡ʒe', 't͡ʃe').
Penultimate Stress

- The 'd͡ʒ' and 't͡ʃ' clusters are treated as single onsets.
