Onset Maximization

Dutch prefers to maximize the consonant cluster at the beginning of a syllable.

Vowel Peak Principle

Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.

Consonant Cluster Resolution

Complex consonant clusters are resolved based on sonority, but Dutch allows for relatively large clusters.

  • The optional final '-n' in pronunciation does not affect the syllable division based on the written form.
  • Regional variations in vowel quality may exist but do not alter the core syllabic structure.
