Vowel-Consonant Division

Syllables are typically formed around a vowel, with consonants preceding or following the vowel forming the syllable's onset or coda.

Sonority Peak Principle

Each syllable aims to have a sonority peak, usually a vowel, with consonants arranged according to their sonority.

Palatalization Rule

Consonant clusters are broken after a palatalized consonant.

  • Vowel reduction in unstressed syllables is a significant factor in pronunciation, but doesn't alter the syllabification based on orthography.
  • The final consonant cluster '-тное' is treated as a single syllable despite potential for separation.
