Definition of Terms
A consonant cluster is the occurrence of at least two consonants at the beginning or end of a syllable. A syllable is a unit composed of consonants and vowels or syllabic consonants. A syllable is the smallest pronounceable unit of speech. It has three parts: a beginning or release, a centre or nucleus, and the end or arrest/closure. Only consonants occur at the beginning and at the end of a syllable. Vowels are the main sounds of the centre of the syllable.
