Consonant Cluster Break

Consonant clusters are broken after the first consonant if a vowel follows, as seen in 'men' and 'gi'.

  • The 'gi' cluster is a common point of syllabification, but Romanian prefers to keep natural phonetic units intact.
  • Palatalization of 'g' before 'i' influences pronunciation but not syllabification.
