Onset Maximization

Consonant clusters are maintained as onsets whenever possible.

Sonority Sequencing Principle

Syllables generally follow a sonority hierarchy (vowels are more sonorous than consonants).

Avoidance of Initial Consonant Clusters

The division aims to minimize syllables starting with consonant clusters.

  • The geminate consonants ('tt', 'mm') are maintained as single units, crucial for meaning distinction.
  • Nynorsk pronunciation generally aims for a closer representation of written forms than Bokmål, but vowel reduction in unstressed syllables is still common.
