The phonemes or vocalized sounds we make when speaking are called syllables. For example, when saying “playground,” we can hear two different voice strokes: PLAY – GROUND. Each of these voice strokes is called a “syllable.”
More technically, a syllable is a phoneme or set of phonemes that, when we pronounce them, we do so in a single time or a single stroke of voice. Therefore, the syllables can be formed by a single phoneme or a set of them. Phonemes are represented through the vowels and consonants of the alphabet.
