Vowel Boundary

Syllable division generally occurs before a vowel sound.

Consonant Cluster Break

Consonant clusters are broken before vowels, though some clusters are treated as units.

  • Palatalization of consonants influences syllable structure.
  • Vowel reduction (akan'ye) can occur in unstressed syllables, but doesn't change syllabification.
  • The 'ств' cluster is treated as a unit but is broken here due to the following vowel.
