Syllable

Dalam bahasa Indonesia, Syllable adalah Suku Kata.

 A syllable is the sound of a vowel (a, e, i, o, u) that's created when pronouncing a word. ( Sebuah suku kata adalah suara dari sebuah huruf vokal (a, i, u, e, o) yang dibuat ketika mengucapkan kata )

The number of times that you hear the sound of a vowel (a, e, i, o, u) in a word is equal to the number of syllables the word has. (  Jumlah kali yang anda dengar suara huruf vokal (a, i, u, e, o) dalam sebuah kata adalah sama dengan jumlah suku kata yang dimiliki pada kata yang diucapkan tersebut )

Example

• cake - has 1 syllable ( memiliki 1 suku kata )
• eat - has 1 syllable ( memiliki 1 suku kata )
• cheese - has 1 syllable ( memiliki 1 suku kata )
• eating - has 2 syllables (eat - ing) ( memiliki 2 suku kata )
• chicken - has 2 syllables (chick - en) ( memiliki 2 suku kata )
• worrying - has 3 syllables (wor - ry - ing) ( memiliki 3 suku kata )

Syllables Rules ( Tata Aturan Syllable )

• A syllable is the sound of a vowel (a, e, i, o, u) that's created when
pronouncing a word. ( Sebuah suku kata adalah suara huruf vokal (a, i, u, e, o) yang dibuat ketika mengucapkan kata )
• The number of times that you hear the sound of a vowel (a, e, i, o, u) in a word is equal to the number of syllables the word has. ( Jumlah kali yang anda dengar suara huruf vokal (a, i, u, e, o) dalam sebuah kata adalah sama dengan jumlah suku kata yang dimiliki pada kata yang diucapkan tersebut )

How To Find Syllables ( Cara untuk Menemukan Suku Kata )

• Count the number of vowels (a, e, i, o, u, and sometimes y) in the word. ( Menghitung jumlah huruf hidup (a, i, u, e, o dan terkadang y) dalam kata tersebut )
• Subtract any silent vowels (like the silent 'e' at the end of a word). ( Mengurangi setiap vokal diam (seperti yang diam 'e' dari sebuah kata pada the end) )
• Subtract 1 vowel from every diphthong. ( Mengurangi 1 huruf vokal dari setiap diftong atau bunyi rangkap )
* A diphthong is when two volwels make only 1 sound (oi, oy, ou, ow, au, aw, oo, ...). ( Sebuah diftong atau bunyi rangkap adalah ketika dua huruf vokal membuat hanya 1 suara (oi, oy, ou, ow, au, aw, oo, ...) )
• The number you are left with should be the number of vowels in the word. ( Jumlah yang telah ditinggalkan dengan jumlah huruf vokal yang seharusnya dalam kata tersebut )

How To Divide A Word Into Syllables ( Cara Membagi Sebuah Kata Menjadi Suku Kata )

• Divide off any compound words, prefixes, suffixes, and root words that have vowels. ( Membagi dari kata majemuk apapun, awalan, akhiran dan kata - kata akar yang memiliki huruf hidup. )
* sports/car, house/boat, un/happy, pre/paid, re/write, farm/er, hope/less
• Divide between two middle consonants ( Membagi antara dua huruf konsonan tengah )
* hap/pens, bas/ket, let/ter, sup/per, din/ner
* Never split up consonant digraphs as they really represent only one sound ("th", "sh", "ph", "th", "ch", and "wh"). ( Jangan pernah berpisah digraf huruf konsonan karena mereka hanya mewakili satu suara ("th", "sh", "ph", "th", "ch", dan "wh") )
• Usually divide before a single consonant. ( Biasanya membagi sebuah sebuah huruf konsonan tunggal )
* o/pen, i/tem, e/vil, re/port.
* The only exceptions are those times when the first syllable has an obvious short sound, as in "cab/in". ( Satu - satunya pengecualian adalah saat suku kata pertama memiliki suara pendek yang jelas, seperti dalam "cab/in" )
• Divide before an "-le" syllable. ( Membagi sebelum sebuah suku kata "-le" )
* a/ble, fum/ble, rub/ble, mum/ble
* The only exceptions are "ckle" words like "tick/le". ( Hanya pengecualian adalah "ckle" seperti kata "tick/le" )
