Consonant Cluster Handling

Avoidance of Diphthong Breaking

Diphthongs are not split across syllable boundaries.

  • The complex consonant clusters in 'forsikring' and 'virksomhed' require careful consideration.
  • The stød (glottal stop) on the final syllable is crucial for pronunciation and meaning, but does not directly affect syllabification.
  • The stress pattern is influenced by the compounding of multiple morphemes.
