V = Vowel; C = Consonant

English has 6 basic syllable types: closed (C)VC, vowel-consonant-e VCe, vowel teams (C)VV(C), r-controlled Vr, consonant + le VCle, and open (C)V. Closed and vowel-consonant-e are the same, since this system is phoneme-based and the silent e will not matter. Vowel teams also do not matter in a phoneme-based sytem, becoming either closed or open syllbles.

The system will use the following rules for vowel placement. If manual separation of syllables is required, use a dash (-) to separate the symbols.
