	Ling 200 \| Syllabification
		As always in phonology, our goal is to propose a theory of syllabification and syllable structure that is general enough to encompass the range of variation that we see between languages, while being restrictive enough to account for the aspects of syllable structure that do not vary from language to language.
		In many languages, it doesn't matter whether the syllabification rules apply to the string of segments from left to right or from right to left, but sometimes the direction of application does matter and needs to be specified.
		There is one important way in which syllabification rules are different from most of the rules that we have seen so far.

	Syllabification - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Syllabification is the separation of a word into syllables, whether spoken or written.
		English written syllabification is therefore forced to in essence create "written" syllables that do not correspond to the actually spoken syllables of the living language.
		It is not possible to simplify the process of written syllabification in English except in some minor details unless a drastic reform of English spelling is implemented, which would of course have to be done in many stages over a long period of time.

	syllabification in WR dictionaries - WordReference Forums
		Sorry about my lack of knowledge on syllabification, but would you be so kind to point out the advantadges of this system, in order to balance pros and cons.
		I don't know how often you use syllabification in Spanish, but it is very popular and advantageous in German (because we have very long words), so I always have to open Word, switch to "syllabification", and choose French.
		Syllabification in French is very regular (ok there are a few funnies, mainly around vowel combinations but almost always you can tell from the spelling).

	A THEORY OF LEXICAL ACCESS IN SPEECH PRODUCTION
		In the theory, syllabification is a late process, because it often depends on the word's phonological environment.
		In escorting, for instance, the syllabification is different: e- scor-ting, where the syllable ting straddles the two morphemes escort and ing.
		Figure 2 represents one possible syllabification of escort, but we could have chosen another; /sk_rt/, for instance would have been a syllable in the citation form of escort.

	MPI Annual Report 1996
		In her dissertation work, M. Baumann had tested this direct syllabification hypothesis by examining how the cliticized forms of Dutch nouns ending in underlyingly voiced plosives are pronounced (see Annual Report 1995).
		If there is only one level of syllabification, exactly the same syllabification should arise in the cliticization as in the plural form.
		Hence, she concluded that there are two levels of syllabification, the second resyllabifying the output of the first.

	Where do spoken words come from?
		Upon retrieval of the code from the mental lexicon, the next operation is initiated, syllabification.
		Incremental syllabification predicts a word length effect, confirmed by recent experiments: naming latencies are shorter for monosyllabic than for disyllabic words.
		The final step in form encoding is phonetic encoding, the retrieval of articulatory scores for each of the incrementally generated syllables.

	Consonants
		Any syllable is uptone after a stop, and so word-initial dagesh kal, a stop between the words to avoid their concatenation, makes word-initial syllables uptone.
		Aspiration changes with syllabification, and is irrelevant in Hebrew.
		Syllabification is different in the LXX and the Massorah, and different consonants are aspirated.

	Phonetics
		Prior to this analysis, syllabification in ámman îar was little studied and even less understood and stress rules required complex descriptions and exceptions.
		Underlying syllabification adheres to the universal well-formedness constraints that are violated in surface realization in favor of morpheme/syllable congruence.
		Stress is further complicated in that case inflections cause the stress to shift to the final syllable of the root word.

	Ling 60 \| Syllabification
		In most languages, it doesn't matter whether the syllabification rules apply to the string of segments from left to right or from right to left, but occasionally the direction of application does matter and needs to be specified.
		So, here is an example of syllabification rules applying in Cairene, with these parameter settings constraining the application of the rules (in particular, no clusters are formed).
		Sometimes a final syllabification rule (or something else) is then needed to take care of the formerly extrametrical material.

	SP2002 Abstract: Birch, Bruce (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Evidence suggests that in Iwaija, a non-Pama-Nyungan language of northern Australia, the Intonation Phrase (IP) is an integrated entity, one which is typical of a cursus language (Pulgram,1970) like French, in which words in connected speech give up some of the properties they exhibit in isolation.
		A salient feature of the prosody of this language is syllabification across content word boundaries.
		The paper examines the way in which this phenomenon relates to two influential versions of the prosodic hierarchy, both of which suggest that syllabification is subsumed, one way or another, within the boundaries of word-sized units.

	Syllabification in Finite State OT
		The inputs to the syllabification OT are sequences of consonants and vowels.
		The input will be marked up with onset, nucleus, coda and unparsed brackets; where a syllable is a sequence of an optional onset, followed by a nucleus, followed by an optional coda.
		This is achieved by marking all nuclei first, and then removing those marks where in fact an onset is present.

	Word syllabification in speech synthesis system (US5949961)
		Sequences matching at least part of or the whole of the word are determined from the substrings together with respective probabilities of occurrence and the sequence having the greatest probability of occurrence is selected as being the most probable syllabification of the word.
		A further method of determining the most probable sequence would be to adopt the above step-by-step approach for all possible substrings capable of forming the beginning of the given word.
		Alternatively, all possible sequences of substring capable of constituting the word can be determined together respective probabilities of occurrence thereof and the sequence having the highest respective probability of occurrence is selected as being the most probable syllabification of the given word.

		It should be kept in mind that the discussions in those treatises are very cursory, and that the authors may not have intended these precise outcomes.
		The statement of the R.kprâtis"âkhya that either syllabification is permitted may originally have meant that the alternation is determined in part by some unspecified property of the word, not necessarily entirely by the whim of the speaker.
		If one is inclined to believe that syllables are ultimately phonological or that there can be differences between phonetic and phonemic syllables, then the statements of these phonetic treatises should be approached with caution.

		Examples of obstructions are stops (the p in tap (which, for the ultra-pedantic, is a voiceless bilabial plosive)), fricatives (the s in sit (more precisely, a sibilant)), affricates (either ch in church), etc. I don’t know why but I totally get into geeking out about phonetics.

	Maria Gouskova's talk at the CUNY Graduate Center
		It is uncontroversial that languages can contrast consonant and vowel length, stress, and tone, but there are no convincing cases of contrast in syllabification (e.g., [pat][ra] vs. [pa][tra]) or being at the edge of a foot.
		Rule-based approaches and Optimality Theory explain this gap in similar terms: in rule-based approaches, syllabification is assumed to be absent in underlying representations; instead, it is assigned by regular syllabification rules (Levin 1985, Bromberger and Halle 1989).
		In Optimality-Theoretic work, it is often said that there is no faithfulness to syllabification, so contrasts cannot arise (McCarthy 2003, inter alia).
