Sonority Principle

Syllables are formed around vowel nuclei, with consonants gravitating towards the nearest vowel.

Avoidance of Initial Consonant Clusters

Russian generally avoids starting a syllable with a consonant cluster, but allows certain clusters like 'стр'.

Morphological Boundaries

Syllable division often respects morphemic boundaries.

  • Vowel reduction (akan'ye and ikan'ye) affects pronunciation but not orthographic syllabification.
  • Gemination of 'л' in 'кристаллический' requires careful consideration.
  • The permissibility of the 'стр' consonant cluster.
