PoeTRY AttitudeWhat Bugs Me
When my teacher tells me to write a poem.
When my mother tells me to clean up my room.
When my sister practices her violin while I’m watching TV.
When my father tells me to turn off the TV and do my homework.
When my brother picks a fight with me and I have to go to bed early.
When my School Principal obliges me to pray in the morning assembly.
When English Literature does not pick me when I know the answer.
When….
When my teacher asks me to get up in front of the class and
read the poem I wrote on the school bus.

SYLLABICATION: also syllabification. The division of a word into syllables: either phonologically, in terms of speech sounds, or orthographically, in terms of letters.
SYLLABLE: The smallest unit of speech that normally occurs in isolation, consisting of either a vowel alone or a combination ofvowel and consonant(s) A syllable standing alone is a monosyllable, and may be a word in its own right, as with a, an, big, cat, no, the, yes. A word containing many syllables is a polysyllable or polysyllabic word, such as selectivity and utilitarianism. A disyllable or disyllabicword has two syllables, a trisyllable or trisyllabic word has three.
Syllabication
Don´t Teach; INSPIRE! www.mrtz08.wordpress.com
• Basic Syllable Rules
1. To find the number of syllables: ---count the vowels in the word, ---subtract any silent vowels, (like the silent "e" at the end of a word or the second vowel when two vowels a together in a syllable) ---subtract one vowel from every dipthong, (diphthongs only count as one vowel sound.) ---the number of vowels sounds left is the same as the number of syllables. The number of syllables that you hear when you pronounce a word is the same as the number of vowels sounds heard. For example: The word "came" has 2 vowels, but the "e" is silent, leaving one vowel sound and one syllable. The word "outside" has 4 vowels, but the "e" is silent and the "ou" is a diphthong which counts as only one sound, so this word has only two vowels sounds and therefore, two syllables.
Syllabication
Don´t Teach; INSPIRE! www.mrtz08.wordpress.com
2. Divide between two middle consonants. Split up words that have two middle consonants. For example: hap/pen, bas/ket, let/ter, sup/per, din/ner, and Den/nis. The only exceptions are the consonant digraphs. Never split up consonant digraphs as they really represent only one sound. The exceptions are "th", "sh", "ph", "th", "ch", and "wh".
3. Usually divide before a single middle consonant. When there is only one syllable, you usually divide in front of it, as in: "o/pen", "i/tem", "e/vil", and "re/port". The only exceptions are those times when the first syllable has an obvious short sound, as in "cab/in".
Syllabication
Don´t Teach; INSPIRE! www.mrtz08.wordpress.com
• 4. Divide before the consonant before an "-le" syllable. When you have a word that has the old-style spelling in which the "-le" sounds like "-el", divide before the consonant before the "-le". For example: "a/ble", "fum/ble", "rub/ble" "mum/ble" and "thi/stle". The only exception to this are "ckle" words like "tick/le".
• 5. Divide off any compound words, prefixes, suffixes and roots which have vowel sounds. Split off the parts of compound words like "sports/car" and "house/boat". Divide off prefixes such at "un/happy", "pre/paid", or "re/write". Also divide off suffixes as in the words "farm/er", "teach/er", "hope/less" and "care/ful". In the word "stop/ping", the suffix is actually "-ping" because this word follows the rule that when you add "-ing" to a word with one syllable, you double the last consonant and add the "-ing".
Syllabication
Don´t Teach; INSPIRE! www.mrtz08.wordpress.com
1-The word “remainder” has...
a. six syllables
b. four syllables
c. five syllables
d. three syllables
e. two syllables
Look at this question again..... the word remainder has... 3 syllables.
this word has four vowels but the 'i' is silent. that leaves us with three vowel
sounds. the number of vowel sounds=the number of syllables.

Syllabication in Haiku
See the red berries Fallen like little footprints On the garden snow.
Discussions about how to preserve the structure of the haiku have taken place in different arenas. Modern Haiku writers do not agree in writing the haiku with the symmetry of 5-7-5 syllables total 17 syllables. They claimed that Haiku is used to express a specific moment of inspiration about nature rather than following a preestablished pattern. It is fundamental to keep the essence of the Haiku though. In japanese, the rules for how to write Haiku are clear, and will not be discussed in our literature class. In foreign languages, there exist NO consensus in how to write Haiku-poems. Anyway, let's take a look at the basic knowledge:
