Rules for Spanish syllabification:

  • When one consonant is between two vowels we cut the word between the first vowel and the consonant.

tra-ba-jar be-bi-da ca-la-ba-za ma-má

  • The letters rr, ll, and ch act as a single consonant in Spanish.

ba-rro me-cha ta-lla fe-rro-ca-rri-le-ro

  • When to consonants are together between two vowels we usually cut the word between the consonants. We do not separate b, c, f, and p from the letters l or r.

pan-ta-lla an-gus-tia lám-pa-ra re-cre-o te-cla fe-bre-ro re-ple-to

  • When three consonants are together between two vowels we usually cut the word between the second and third consonant. We do not separate b, c, f, and p from the letters l or r.

cons-ta ins-pi-ra ins-tan-te com-prar in-glés

Vowel are combined in three ways.

  • two strong vowels (a, e, o) together are cut to form two syllables.

ca-e-mos le-en em-ple-o em-ple-a-do

  • A written accent over a weak vowel automatically forms two syllables

ca-í-da tí-os re-ú-no gra-dú-en

  • two weak vowels (u, i) or one strong (a, e, o) and one weak vowel (u, i) together form one syllable.

I-ta-lia bai-le cuan-do rui-do au-la

  • three vowels together form one syllable.

si-guien-tes

Wes-ped The U sound gets run into the E sound, making a sound similar to W. Just try it and you'll see. Good luck.
