STRUCTURE OF SYLLABLES BY SHAIK.KHASIM

SYLLABIC WORDS A syllable is a sound of a vowel with or without surrounding consonants. It is made up of either a singular vowel sound or a combination of vowel and consonant sound. They are also called as the ‘building blocks’ of words.

MONOSYLLABIC WORDS A word is made up of one or more syllables. Words that consists only one syllable are called as monosyllabic words. Eg: girl, boy, shirt, go, bus, cut etc.

DISYLLABIC WORDS Words that consists of two syllables are called as ‘Disyllabic words’. Eg: teacher, doctor etc.

TRISYLLABIC WORDS Words that consists of three syllables are called as ‘Trisyllabic words’. Eg: remember, phonetics etc.

POLYSYLLABIC WORDS Words that consists of more than three syllables are called as ‘Polysyllabic words’. Eg: population, examination, laboratory etc.

Syllable structure Syllables have internal structure. vowels at the centre consonants at the periphery Consonants can be optional. Languages differ as to their allowable syllable structure. Maori has a (C)V structure. Borrowings from English are adjusted to fit this structure.

More syllable structure nucleus central vowel onset the initial consonant(s) coda the final consonant(s) rhyme nucleus plus coda

Example of syllable structure dog  On Rh Nu Co d o g

Syllable structure in poetry Rhymes in poetry involve the same rhyme constituent appearing on the last rhyme of a line of poetry. I saw a door. What is it for? Internal rhymes also exist as in saw and door. Rhyme schemes are systems of end rhymes.

Rhyme schemes couplet ballad sonnet two lines with a rhyme at the end of each ballad four line verses which rhyme abcb defe etc sonnet 14 line poem Petrarchan abba abba cde cde Shakespearian abab cdcd efef gg

Syllabic consonants Sometimes when a vowel is elided a consonant can become a syllabic nucleus. Only a consonant in the coda can become a syllabic nucleus. Only the following actual consonants can become syllabic nuclei: /l m n/

Syllables and stress Some syllables are more prominent than others. These are termed ‘stressed’ syllables. Stress is related to the location of a syllable in a word.

Exercise Which is the stressed syllable in the following words? income stupid become induce phantom

Where is a syllable? It is conventional to count syllables from the end of the word. last ultimate 2nd to last penultimate 3rd to last antepenultimate 4th to last preantepenultimate
