It contains one (and only one) vowel sound (not letter). The number of consonant sounds in a syllable may be ‘Zero to Seven’.<\/p>\n A word may have one syllable or more.<\/p>\n The, number of vowel sounds in a word gives us the number of syllables in that word. By noticing the vowel symbols in the phonetic transcript of a given word, we can arrive at the number of syllables in that word. Look at the following examples :<\/p>\n pen \/ pen only one vowel sound – one syllable – monosyllabic paper \/ peips (r) \/ two vowel sounds – two syllables – disyllabic gravity \/ graeviti \/ three vowel sounds – three syllables – trisyllabic.<\/p>\n discovery \/ d\u026a\u02c8sk\u028cv\u025a\u0279i \/ four vowel sounds – four syllables – poly (tetra) syllabic, organization \/ \u02cc\u0254\u02d0r\u0261\u0259n\u0259\u02c8ze\u026a\u0283\u0259n \/ five vowel sounds – five syllables – poly (penta) syllabic.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n There are, however, certain words in which the number of vowel sounds is not equal to the number of syllables. Look at the following examples : The reason for this variation is that the consonant sounds \/ l \/, \/ m \/ and \/ n \/ help form a syllable. These sounds in such words are, therefore, called syllabic consonants. Exercise – A<\/span><\/p>\n In the following table four categories of words are given. Read them aloud paying attention to the syllabic division.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Exercise – B<\/span><\/p>\n Read the words in the table and write the number of syllables in the columns. Look up the words in a dictionary to check your answers. The first one has been done for you.<\/p>\n Mention the number of syllables in the following words.<\/p>\n Exercise – 1<\/span><\/p>\n i) misery <\/p>\n Exercise – 2<\/span><\/p>\n i) person Exercise – 3<\/span><\/p>\n i) lawyer <\/p>\n Exercise – 4<\/span><\/p>\n i) before Exercise – 5<\/span><\/p>\n i) glance <\/p>\n Exercise – 6<\/span><\/p>\n i) understand Exercise – 7<\/span><\/p>\n i) pension <\/p>\n Exercise – 8<\/span><\/p>\n 1) popular Exercise – 9<\/span><\/p>\n i) punctual <\/p>\n Exercise – 10<\/span><\/p>\n i) particular Telangana TSBIE\u00a0TS Inter 1st Year English Study Material Grammar Syllables Exercise Questions and Answers.
