Maximize Open Syllables
Dutch favors CV syllables whenever possible. Syllable division attempts to create open syllables before closed ones.
Consonant Cluster Resolution
Consonant clusters are broken up in a way that minimizes syllable complexity, often placing single consonants at the end of a syllable.
Penultimate Stress

- The connecting element '-aan-' doesn't have a clear syllabic boundary and is integrated into the preceding syllable.
