Maximize Open Syllables

Danish favors syllables ending in vowels whenever possible.

Consonant Clusters

Consonant clusters are permitted at the end of syllables, but syllables are still divided to maximize openness.

  • The glottal stop /ˀ/ does not affect syllable division, but is a crucial phonetic feature.
  • Complex consonant clusters can sometimes make syllable division less intuitive, but the principle of maximizing open syllables is generally followed.
