Explication

Fourteen combos glide: ia ie io ua ue uo (rising: tierra, fuego), ai ei oi au eu ou (falling: aire, deuda), iu ui (ciudad, cuidado). They count as ONE syllable for stress rules.

An accent on the weak vowel breaks the diphthong into two syllables — that's hiatus (día, país) — see the hiatus rule.

Exemples

Bueno, hay tiempo el miércoles.
