Onset Maximization

Consonant clusters are maintained within the syllable as long as they don't create an illegal onset.

Sonority Sequencing Principle

Syllables are structured to maximize sonority from the onset to the nucleus and then decreasing sonority towards the coda.

Penultimate Stress Rule

Primary stress falls on the second-to-last syllable in most Dutch words.

Vowel-Centric Syllabification

Each syllable must contain a vowel nucleus.

  • The complex consonant cluster '-ngs-' in 'dings' requires careful consideration, but is a common feature of Dutch morphology.
  • The compound nature of the word could potentially lead to stress shifts, but the penultimate stress rule overrides this tendency.
