18 Dividing Words Into Syllables
There are four ways to split up a word into its syllables: 1. Divide between two middle consonants. Split up words that have two middle consonants. For example: hap-pen, bas-ket, let-ter, sup-per, din-ner, . The only exceptions are the consonant digraphs. Never split up consonant digraphs as they really represent only one sound. 2. Usually divide before a single middle consonant. When there is only one middle consonant, you usually divide in front of it. For example: "o-pen", "i-tem", "e-vil", and "re-port". 3. Divide before the consonant before an "-le" syllable. For example: a-ble, ti-tle, 4. Divide off any compound words, prefixes, and suffixes which have vowel sounds. sail-boat, un-paid, teach-ing,

19 Find the syllabication in multisyllable words
Spot and Dot Find the syllabication in multisyllable words Spot and dot the vowels. Connect the dots. Look under the line. How many consonants do you see? If there are two consonants, divide between them. If there is only one consonant, divide before it. If this doesn’t sound right, try after it. . . trumpet trum-pet . . o-pen open . .
