When you pronounce a word by its syllables, you can break the word down into smaller pieces that make sounding out the word (if you dont know how to spell it) easier. try spelling supercalifragalisticexpialadocious. its easier with syllables right? su-per-cal-i-frag-a-lis-tic-ex-pe-al-a-do-cious. 'Cutting' it into smaller segments, or syllables, makes it much easier to spell than the entire word all at once.
