Onset Maximization
Danish prefers to include as many consonants as possible in the onset of a syllable (e.g., 'str' in 'venstre').
Vowel Nucleus
Each syllable must have a vowel nucleus.
Sonority Sequencing
Syllable structure follows the sonority sequencing principle, with sounds decreasing in sonority from the beginning to the end of the syllable.
- The presence of complex consonant clusters like 'str' and 'll' requires careful consideration, but they generally remain within a single syllable.
- Regional variations in pronunciation (e.g., *stød*) do not significantly alter the syllable division.
