Sonority Sequencing Principle

Syllables are formed around a sonority peak (vowel). Consonants are assigned to the syllable with the closest vowel.

Consonant Cluster Resolution

Consonant clusters are broken up based on the possibility of epenthesis or the sonority of the consonants.

Prefix/Suffix Boundaries

Prefixes and suffixes are generally separated into distinct syllables.

  • The 'в' before 'т' in 'тво' can sometimes be considered part of the following syllable, but the standard syllabification separates them.
  • Palatalization of consonants before 'е' and 'и' influences pronunciation but not syllable division.
