One exemple of word regularly wrongly hyphenated is the country name "Israël" which is cut "Is-raël" (wrong) or word "Israéliens" which is cut "Is-raéliens" (wrong) instead of "Israé-liens" (right although sounds strange...).

Unless French has some odd way of making syllables, I don't see how 
Is-raël is wrong in an absolute sense, it's just a bad choice 
typographically. Aren't there 3 syllables in Israël? In English we would 
probably choose not to hyphenate either Israel or Israeli.

I just tried out hyphenation with LibreOffice, and it created the line 
break for "understanding" as "un- derstanding", in which case one would 
say un- is indeed the first syllable, but for reading and typographic 
purposes you don't want it hyphenated that way.
