Every word has at least one syllable.

An easy way to determine how many syllables a word has is to clap whilst saying a word. For example, if you clap and say the word "exciting" you will clap three times. This means the word "exciting" has three syllables. Each clap represents one syllable. Thus:

  • Clap 1 - "ex"
  • Clap 2 - "ci"
  • Clap 3 - "ting"
