Consonant clusters are split, with the first consonant joining the preceding vowel.

Vowel-Consonant-Vowel

Vowels are typically separated by intervening consonants.

Maximizing Onsets

Syllables tend to maximize onsets (consonant sounds at the beginning of a syllable).

  • The interfixes (-ми-, -я-, -ти-) are crucial for grammatical structure but don't represent independent morphemes.
  • Vowel reduction in unstressed syllables influences the perceived syllable boundaries.
