I wonder if someone can help me clarify how to divide this word into syllables?
מַלְכָּה
My confusion is around the sheva, i.e.
מַ | לְ | כָּה CV,CV,CVC or
מַלְ | כָּה CVC,CVC.
I guess I don't know if the sheva can count as a vowel for the purposes of syllabification?

The above would give the pronunciation of מַלְכָּה as mal-kah.
Although my advice is to always not worry about the Masoretic syllables - the consonants are the main thing to look at
