We know that a syllable requires a vowel

 

a word like "cute" is made out of one syllable because it has one vowel.

 

That means the number of vowels and syllables in any word coincides

 

Bigger ==> two syllables

 

Short ==> One syllable

 

* We only count what we pronounce according to received pronunciation.

Zawawi

Vowels are voiced and they are all oral.

 

1. In their production, air has to leave the body through the mouth. In other words, the velum has to assume a raised position.

 

2. The production of vowels require the vocal cords to assume a vibrating position because all vowels are voiced.
