• gangvei: /ˈɡɑŋˌvei/ - Compound noun, simpler syllable structure, stress on the first element.

The differences in syllable structure are primarily due to the length and complexity of the word "adgangsberettiga" and the addition of the genitive suffix "-s".

10. Division Rules:

• Onset Maximization: Syllables prefer to have onsets (consonant sounds at the beginning) whenever possible.
• Vowel Sequencing: Each vowel sound generally forms the nucleus of a separate syllable.
• Consonant Clusters: Consonant clusters are broken up according to sonority hierarchy, but within limits to maintain meaningful morphemes.
