Hi there,
I'm writing a thesis on Latvian morphology, and I have realised I don't know something quite central:
Where are the syllable boundaries in masculine dative plural words, e.g. 'draugiem'? Is it draug-i-em (3 syllables) or draug-iem (2 syllables, with the i before another vowel functioning as a kind of consonantal j?
Many thanks!
