Each word has one, two, three or more syllables.

Japanese and English syllables are very different.

Japanese: オレンジ　オ1　レ2　ン3　ジ4　= 4 syllables

English: o - range =2 syllables

dog = 1

green = 1

quite = 1

quiet = 2

*table = 2

expensive = 3

interesting = 4

realistic = 4

TRY IT!

*Notice that (with a few rare exceptions) every syllable contains at least one vowel (a, e, i, o or u) or vowel sound.
