| Apr 7, 2016 at 23:24 | comment | added | Gaston Ümlaut | @GregLee in my experience the [s] in [ps:t] would be described as syllabic, not syllabified, as it has not changed in any way (contra what you seem to be saying) but is simply being used as the syllable nucleus. | |
| Apr 7, 2016 at 18:00 | comment | added | TKR | Fair enough. I guess we need the OP to clarify which sense of the word they meant. | |
| Apr 7, 2016 at 17:53 | comment | added | Greg Lee | @TKR, yes, "syllabification" is used to refer to division into syllables. And "syllabication" also means this. But the syllabified s in "pssst" would probably not be said to be "vocalized". | |
| Apr 7, 2016 at 17:43 | comment | added | TKR | I'd call this "vocalization"; I don't think I've seen "syllabification" used in this way. That term usually means "the division of a word into syllables". | |
