Consonant clusters are maintained within syllables unless they are exceptionally complex or disrupt pronunciation. The 'prl' and 'ct' clusters are examples of this.

Penultimate Stress

Stress typically falls on the penultimate syllable, unless indicated otherwise by accent marks.

  • The 'prl' and 'ct' consonant clusters require careful consideration but are permissible within syllables in Romanian.
  • Regional variations in pronunciation are minimal regarding syllable division.
