The function applies to all words that have at least one syllable. However, there may be exceptions for words that have an irregular syllable structure or words that are not pronounceable in the same way as their syllables are written. For example, the word "L\u00f3pez Obrador" has an accent on the "e" in "L\u00f3pez", which changes the pronunciation of the word and may not follow the usual syllable structure.
