Maximize Onsets and Codas

Syllables are formed to include as many consonants as possible in the onset and coda positions, respecting phonotactic constraints.

Vowel Nucleus

Each syllable must contain a vowel nucleus.

  • Geminate consonants (e.g., 'ss') are common and do not affect syllabification.
  • The 'ng' consonant cluster is treated as a single unit in the coda.
  • Regional variations in vowel quality may exist but do not alter the core syllabification.
