Onset Maximization

The syllable division attempts to maximize the number of consonants in the onset of each syllable, as long as it doesn't create an impossible cluster for Nynorsk phonotactics.

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are generally not left as the sole consonant in a syllable unless they are part of a permissible coda.

  • The 'dl' cluster in 'dling' is a permissible, though relatively uncommon, onset in Nynorsk.
  • The geminate 'n' in 'han' doesn't affect the syllable division but is important for pronunciation.
