  2. Syllable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syllable

    The coda (also known as auslaut) comprises the consonant sounds of a syllable that follow the nucleus. The sequence of nucleus and coda is called a rime. Some syllables consist of only a nucleus, only an onset and a nucleus with no coda, or only a nucleus and coda with no onset. The phonotactics of many languages forbid syllable codas.

  3. Bengali phonology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bengali_phonology

    Bengali words are virtually all trochaic; the primary stress falls on the initial syllable of the word, while secondary stress often falls on all odd-numbered syllables thereafter, giving strings such as সহযোগিতা sahayogitā [ˈʃɔhoˌdʒoɡiˌta] ('cooperation'). The first syllable carries the greatest stress, with the third ...

    Onset (optional) Rhyme (obligatory, comprises nucleus and coda): Nucleus (obligatory) Coda (optional) Both onset and coda may be empty, forming a vowel-only syllable, or alternatively, the nucleus can be occupied by a syllabic consonant. Phonotactics is known to affect second language vocabulary acquisition. [3]

  5. Syllabary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syllabary

    In the linguistic study of written languages, a syllabary is a set of written symbols that represent the syllables or (more frequently) morae which make up words.. A symbol in a syllabary, called a syllabogram, typically represents an (optional) consonant sound (simple onset) followed by a vowel sound ()—that is, a CV (consonant+vowel) or V syllable—but other phonographic mappings, such as ...

  6. Sonority sequencing principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonority_Sequencing_Principle

    A good example for the SSP in English is the one-syllable word trust: The first consonant in the syllable onset is t, which is a stop, the lowest on the sonority scale; next is r, a liquid which is more sonorous, then we have the vowel u / ʌ / – the sonority peak; next, in the syllable coda, is s, a sibilant, and last is another stop, t.

    Coda: Syllables must have no codas. NoCoda: Ons: Syllables must have onsets. Onset: HNuc: A nuclear segment must be more sonorous than another (from "harmonic nucleus"). *Complex: A syllable must not have more than one segment in its onset, nucleus or coda. CodaCond: Coda consonants cannot have place features that are not shared by an onset ...

    In signal processing, onset detection is an active research area. For example, the MIREX annual competition features an Audio Onset Detection contest . Approaches to onset detection can operate in the time domain , frequency domain , phase domain, or complex domain , and include looking for:
