Open Syllable Preference

Russian favors CV syllables. Consonants are generally assigned to the following vowel to maximize open syllables.

Sonority Hierarchy

When consonant clusters occur, consonants are divided based on their sonority, with more sonorous sounds tending to form syllable nuclei.

Consonant Cluster Resolution

Consonant clusters are broken up to create permissible syllable structures, adhering to the open syllable principle.

  • The word's length and complex consonant clusters require careful application of the open syllable principle.
  • Vowel reduction (akan'ye and ikan'ye) does not affect the written syllable division.
  • The initial 'ps' cluster is a common exception, but is treated as a single onset.
