Open Syllable Principle

Russian favors CV syllables; consonants are assigned to the following vowel.

Sonority Hierarchy

Consonant clusters are resolved based on sonority (vowels > liquids > nasals > fricatives > stops).

Linking Vowels

Linking vowels like '-о-' are treated as separate syllables.

Morpheme Boundaries

Syllable boundaries often align with morphemic boundaries (prefix, root, suffix).

  • Consonant clusters require careful application of the sonority hierarchy.
  • Vowel reduction (akan'e and ikan'e) affects pronunciation but not orthographic syllable division.
