Vowel Peak Rule

Syllables are built around vowel nuclei. Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.

Consonant Cluster Rule

Consonant clusters are generally split according to sonority, but Dutch tends to keep clusters within a syllable if possible, especially at the beginning.

Penultimate Stress Rule

Primary stress falls on the penultimate syllable in many Dutch words, including compound nouns.

  • Dutch allows for some flexibility in syllabification, especially with consonant clusters. The presented division is the most common and phonologically justifiable.
  • Regional variations in vowel pronunciation exist, but these do not significantly affect the syllable division.
