Consonant Cluster Handling

Breaking consonant clusters after the first consonant when possible, but preserving clusters like 'kts' when they function as a unit.

Vowel-Centric Syllabification

Each syllable must contain a vowel.

  • The 'kts' cluster is a potential point of variation, but standard pronunciation does not insert a schwa.
  • The geminate 'nn' in 'vennlig' is crucial for pronunciation and must be maintained.
