Answer 1

A syllable is a unit of organization for a group of speech sounds. For example, the word "potatoes" is composed of three syllables: "po", "ta", and "toes". A syllable is typically made up of a syllable nucleus (typically vowel(s)) with optional initial and final margins (typically consonants).

Each of these little chunks is a syllable because it has a separate vowel sound. The number of syllables is not the number of vowels, but the number of spoken vowel sounds.

Examples of words with 1 syllable: the, pain, bright, should, queue (pronounced like "cue")

Examples of words with 2 syllables: answer, receive (ree-SEEV)

Examples of words with 3 syllables: syllable, incident, commission, photograph
A syllable is a unit of organization for a sequence of speech sounds. For example, the word water is composed of two syllables: WA and ter.
