Even though I wrote a post about tokens that have a larger number of syllables than three (or even four), the whole notion of syllables in the linguistic sense concerns me when it is applied to the VMS. We don't know the value of a single glyph, or even if they represent letters.
It could be argued that something like alol is two syllables, but what if it represents a word like stet? Then it is one syllable. If it is aioi, then it could be three or four, depending on the language. If it represents 1 12 19 12, then the notion of syllables doesn't even apply.
