Word Parts
Vowel-Based Syllabification
Danish syllabification prioritizes vowel sounds. Each vowel (or diphthong) typically forms the nucleus of a syllable.
Avoid Breaking Diphthongs
Diphthongs are treated as a single vowel sound and are not split across syllables.
Consonant Clusters
Consonant clusters are handled based on sonority. Consonants are grouped around the vowel nucleus, even if it results in complex onsets or codas.
- The 'ps' cluster is relatively common in Danish and doesn't typically require syllable separation.
- The length of vowels (indicated by 'ː' in the IPA transcription) is phonemically significant in Danish and affects syllable weight.
