A syllable is a unit of pronunciation uttered without interruption, loosely, a single sound. All words are made from at least one syllable. Monosyllables are words that have have only one vowel sound; polysyllables have more than one. If a syllable ends with a consonant, it is called a closed syllable. If a syllable ends with a vowel, it is called an open syllable. Patterns of syllables can be shown with C and V (C for 'consonant', V for 'vowel'). Closed syllables are often shown as CVC (such as got), and open syllables as CV (such as go).
It is pronounced be-STOW, so the stressed syllable is -stow. A stressed syllable is the part of a multi-syllabic word that you put emphasis on when you're saying it. Ex.â¦ -rive in ar-rive -junc in con-junc-tion - med in im-med-i-ate.
