Is there a sane way of splitting English words into syllables for karaoke, or should I just flip a table? Hyphenation rules say 'un-com-fort-able', but the pronunciation is 'uhn-kuhmf-tuh-buhl'. The 'or' disappears. I have 'un-comfor-ta-ble' but...

But now I'm exporting from BlitzLoop to ASS to YTT in a style that highlights each syllable as a unit, and now the splits are a lot more obvious... and I'm not sure what I want to do.
It's this btw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygRMnhYy1tw … (turn on English captions).

Are you looking for a programmatic way to decide where to split the syllables, or are you more just asking about which syllabification style is best? If it's the former, I wrote some code for syllabifying lyrics based on TeX syllabification patterns recently

And it's... well, not perfect, but you don't need to do much cleanup on it to make it look good. My goal was to make the workflow faster than syllabifying it all manually, and I think I succeeded with that (FWIW, the subtitles on that video don't have per-syllable timing for me)
