Onset Maximization

Consonant clusters are maximized within the onset of a syllable (e.g., 'sl', 'psch').

Sonority Sequencing Principle

Syllables follow a sonority hierarchy, with vowels being more sonorous than consonants.

Avoid Single Consonants

Dutch avoids leaving single consonants at the beginning of a syllable if possible.

  • The 'sch' cluster is treated as a single unit for syllabification.
  • Dutch allows for complex consonant clusters, which can sometimes be challenging but follow established patterns.
