Syllabogram

Segmentation of the spoken syllable ( σ ) in u. a. Rhyme ( ρ ), optional consonant ( C ^* ) onset ( ω ), obligatory vowel ( V ⁺ ) core (nucleus, ν ), optional consonant coda ( κ ).

Syllabogram ( Greek : syllabé "syllable", "fetter"; gramma "letter") or syllable character is the designation for a meaning-differentiating (non-meaningful) character that contains a whole syllable C ^* V ⁺ C ^* or at least a body C ⁺ V ⁺ , Core V ⁺ or rhyme V ⁺ C ⁺ reproduces.

A syllabary uses exclusively or predominantly syllabograms, which are combined into a syllabar like letters in an alphabet . So it forms a writing system based on syllables.

The syllable sign is a syllable and therefore a unique sound value . The following syllable structures are proven:

• C.V Consonant + vowel
• VC. Vowel + consonant
• C.VC. Consonant + vowel + consonant
• V vocal
