![]() ![]() In most syllables where the CC cluster is closed by glides, nasals, and fricatives, the reproduction principle has been violated. Also, the consonant expression in the syllable-final cluster shows that the principle of the sequencing sonority is confirmed in some data, and in some others, it has been violated. The results showed that the syllable structure in Gilaki is CV(C)(C) in which the presence of one consonant in the onset position and a vowel in the nucleus is obligatory, and having one or two consonants in coda position is optional. The sequence of coda clusters was presented in separate tables based on the syllable's vowels. Sonority is a measure of the amplitude of a speech sound. In this research 980 CVCC lexical items were obtained among 23,660 words. Sonority Sequencing Principle Segments of a syllable are universally distributed following the Sonority Sequencing Principle (SSP), which states that, in any syllable, the nucleus has maximal sonority and that sonority decreases as you move away from the nucleus. The more sonorous segments are closer to the peak and the less sonorous ones are further away from it. The licensing of word-initial CC clusters in Hiw complies with the Sonority Sequencing Principle, albeit with some adjustments. The vowels are the most sonorous segments and form the peak or nucleus of each syllable. ![]() The sonority sequencing principle (SSP) states that the syllable nucleus constitutes a sonority peak that is preceded or followed by a sequence of consonants with progressively decreasing sonority values. ![]() In this article, the sonority sequencing principle is described in Eastern Gilaki syllables. Words that adhere to and violate the sonority sequencing principle (SSP). Gilaki is a member of the northwestern Iranian language branch, spoken in Gilan Province. ![]()
