Vowel-Initial Syllables

Syllables generally begin with vowels (e.g., e-fter).

Consonant Clusters

Consonant clusters are often broken after the first consonant if a vowel follows (e.g., skon-).

Compound Word Syllabification

Compound words are syllabified based on the individual morphemes.

  • The interfix '-skon-' doesn't create a separate syllable on its own.
  • The elision of /d/ in 'hand' is a phonetic variation and doesn't affect the orthographic syllable division.
