Avoid Breaking Consonant Clusters

Suffix Separation
Suffixes are typically separated into their own syllables, especially genitive suffixes like '-s'.
- The long vowels /iː/ and /uː/ do not pose specific syllabification challenges.
- The consonant clusters 'ks' and 'ts' are permissible and do not necessitate syllable breaks.
- Regional variations in vowel length might slightly affect the perceived syllable boundaries, but the overall syllabification remains consistent.
