The language exhibits the capability to have more than one consonant in coda position in a syllable. These combinations include nasal + obstruent or liquid + nasal clusters. They occur word-finally somewhat rarely.

The maximal syllable is CCVC. Here, the first consonant can be a plosive or fricative; the second can be a nasal, approximant, or /ɾ/ [If the first consonant is not a sibilant, then the second cannot be a nasal.]; the vowel can be long or short; the final consonant can be a nasal or /ɾ/.

Syllables in Myrkçam maintain the sonority sequencing principle. In particular, the sonority hierarchy for Myrkçam is as follows, from highest to lowest:

/a ɶ/
/e ø ɤ o/
/i y ɯ u/
/j w/
/r/
/n/
/m ɲ ŋ/
/ɸ θ ɕ ç x/
/s/
/t/
/p c k/

Syllables are limited to a (CA)V(A), (CA)V(C), or (C)(C)V(A)(C) structure, where V represents any vowel, C represents any consonant, A represents any of the phonemes /r j w/, and parentheses represent optional elements. The only exception to this occurs when a nasal precedes a fricative across a syllable boundary, in which case an oral plosive at the fricative’s place of articulation is intercalated at the end of the first syllable regardless of structural constraints.

Celinese

A Celinese syllable can be as complex as (C)(C)(A)(V)(V)(A)(C)(C), whereby A signifies /l/, /ʐ/, /ɾ/, /w/ or /j/. E.g. struinc (overbearing, ruthless). Most syllables are, however, just C(C)VC.

Kti has a [C(C)V(C)]/[(CC)VC] syllable structure with significant liberties as to what clusters can occur.

Sakawi

the underlying maximal syllable structure is (C)(C)(C)(C)V(N), non-nasal consonantal "endings"(mostly continuants like r,ll,lh,s,z,etc) are seen as having an elided reduced vowel following it(or are seen as syllabic consonants), and all word-medial consonant clusters shall have the form of "a nasal+a single consonant", "an initial cluster"(a consonant cluster that are permitted to start a sord), "a nasal + an initial cluster"(a consonant cluster that are permitted to start a sord)

for example, the syllable structure of kunomostomistakimos("he/she/it doesn't give him/her/it to him/her/it) is interpreted as "ku-no-mo-sto-mi-sta-ki-mo-s"(note that s is interpreted as a independent syllable), having 9 syllables and morae, not "ku-no-mos-to-mis-ta-ki-mos"; the syllable structure of mallormuki("let's go") is interpreted as "ma-llo-r-mu-ki"(note that s is interpreted as a independent syllable), not "ma-llor-mu-ki".

plosive endings of a syllable can only be found in loanwords.

Maximal coda is two consonants, which usually only occurs in plural forms.

Minimally V, though this can only occur word-initially; other syllables must have an onset. Codas may be a single consonant or an approximant plus a consonant, with the restriction that if the approximant is pharyngeal, only /s ɕ/ may follow.
