Total number of syllables in English language?
Quoting San Duanmu in 'Syllable Structure: The Limits of Variation'.
"The total number of possible syllables, therefore, should be the number of possible onsets times the number of VX rhymes times the number of choices for the extra final C.
Possible monosyllables in English.
Total = Onsets x VX x C = 59 x 298 x 10 = 170,510"
