Word Parts
Sonority Sequencing Principle
Syllables are structured around a sonority peak (vowel).
Onset-Rime Structure
Syllables are divided into an onset (initial consonant(s)) and a rime (vowel and following consonants).
Consonant Cluster Resolution
Danish allows complex consonant clusters, but often breaks them after the first consonant if it's a plosive or fricative.
Vowel as Syllable Nucleus
Each syllable must have a vowel sound.
- The 'j' in 'høj' is a glide and doesn't form a syllable on its own.
- Danish stød (glottal stop) can affect pronunciation but doesn't change syllabification.
- The word's length and complex morphology require careful application of syllable division rules.
