Word Parts
Vowel Nucleus Rule
Syllables are formed around vowel nuclei. Each vowel sound typically constitutes a syllable.
Consonant Cluster Rule
Consonant clusters are maintained as onsets where possible, avoiding unnecessary syllable breaks.
Maximizing Onsets
Danish syllabification tends to maximize onsets (consonant sounds at the beginning of a syllable) rather than codas (consonant sounds at the end of a syllable).
- The presence of the glottal stop (ˀ) does not affect the syllabification process. Complex consonant clusters are common and are treated as single onsets.
