I want to know how to break a word in to different sylables
Hi Akbar khan,

Here are three rules for dividing words into syllables:
1. Every syllable must have a vowel. For example, ra/di/o
2. Divide syllables between double consonants. For example, hob/bled
3. Prefixes and suffixes are syllables. For example, dis/ap/pear
