To start with, unpronouncable should be spelled unpronounceable.

I'm not convinced that this is a valid strategy. If it is a valid approach, then your lists of pronounceable syllables is incomplete. For example, unpronouncable(4) is capable of returning "test", which I consider to be a pronounceable word.

Your two-letter combinations are listed almost alphabetically, which makes the list hard to maintain. For example, "so" is out of place, "os" and "xi" are listed twice, and eight elements are haphazardly added at the end. The three-letter list doesn't appear to be in any recognizable order.

When you reject a candidate word, you use recursion to retry. In JavaScript, you should avoid using recursion when a simple while loop will do — especially when there is no bound to the depth of the recursion.
