How does the Syllable Counter calculate syllables in English?

The counter uses a phonotactic onset-coda clustering engine combined with curated dictionary mappings. It identifies vowel nuclei, handles silent letters like final silent "e", processes consonant-le endings, and resolves syncope in words like "chocolate".

What is a Haiku and how does the Haiku Checker verify it?

A traditional English haiku is a three-line poem with a 5-7-5 syllable structure (total of 17 syllables). The tool highlights each line’s syllable count and displays a celebration badge upon reaching 5-7-5.

Why do some words have different syllable counts in conversation vs dictionaries?

Many words undergo vowel reduction (syncope) in natural conversational speech. For example, "chocolate" has 3 syllables on paper but is pronounced with 2 syllables in everyday English.

What is word stress and why does it matter?

Word stress means emphasizing a specific syllable with higher pitch and volume. In English, incorrect stress changes meanings (e.g. REC-ord vs re-CORD).

How is the Reading Ease score computed?

Reading Ease uses the Flesch formula evaluating sentence length and syllable density. Scores from 80-100 indicate easy reading, while scores below 50 indicate complex text.

英語の音節はどう数えるか：4つの黄金律

1あごの上下ルール

あごの下に手を当てて単語をゆっくり発音します。母音を出すためにあごが下がった回数が1音節としてカウントされます。

2二重母音ルール

2つの母音が結合して1つの滑らかな音を構成する場合（meat の ea や cloud の ou）、2つではなく1音節と数えます。

3サイレントEルール

語尾が無音の e で終わる場合（time, home, cake など）、末尾の e は音節にならず、直前の母音を長音化します。

4子音 + "-le" ルール

子音＋-le で終わる場合（table, bottle など）、-le 自体が固有の音節核を形成します。
