Vowel Nucleus Rule

Syllables are formed around vowel nuclei. Each vowel typically forms a separate syllable.

Consonant Cluster Rule

Consonant clusters are generally broken before a vowel, creating separate syllables.

Palatalization Rule

Palatalization of consonants influences syllable boundaries and pronunciation.

  • Vowel reduction (akan'ye/okan'ye) affects pronunciation but not syllabification.
  • Russian avoids leaving a single consonant at the beginning of a syllable.
