Dear teachers,
Is there a rule which explains how one should segment syllables?
For example I thought that "lateral, easily, reliability, laboratory" were divided this way :
la/te/ral
ea/si/ly
re/li/a/bi/li/ty
la/bo/ra/to/ry
but they seem to be segmented this way, why?
lat/er/al
eas/i/ly
re/li/a/bil/i/ty
lab/o/ra/to/ry
Have you got other tricky exemples, please?
How would you devide the follwing:
"a ttri bu te" or "at tri bu te" ? "a ffect" oru "af fect" ? "a pplause" or "ap plause" ?
"a ppeal" or "ap peal" ? etc.
Thank you very much for your help.
