Syl"la*ble, n. Etym: [OE. sillable, OF. sillabe, F. syllabe, L.
syllaba, Gr. labh, rabh. Cf. Lemma, Dilemma.]
1. An elementary sound, or a combination of elementary sounds,
uttered together, or with a single effort or impulse of the voice,
and constituting a word or a part of a word. In other terms, it is a
vowel or a diphtong, either by itself or flanked by one or more
consonants, the whole produced by a single impulse or utterance. One
of the liquids, l, m, n, may fill the place of a vowel in a syllable.
Adjoining syllables in a word or phrase need not to be marked off by
a pause, but only by such an abatement and renewal, or reënforcement,
of the stress as to give the feeling of separate impulses. See Guide
to Pronunciation, §275.
2. In writing and printing, a part of a word, separated from the
rest, and capable of being pronounced by a single impulse of the
voice. It may or may not correspond to a syllable in the spoken
language.
Withouten vice [i. e. mistake] of syllable or letter. Chaucer.
3. A small part of a sentence or discourse; anything concise or
short; a particle.
Before any syllable of the law of God was written. Hooker.
Who dare speak One syllable against him Shak.
