Maximize Onset Principle
Consonant clusters are kept together at the beginning of a syllable whenever possible (e.g., 'kelt', 'for').
Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are not left alone at the end of a syllable unless necessary (e.g., 'en', 'te').
Vowel-centric Syllabification
Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.
- The consonant cluster '-ltf-' is relatively complex but permissible in Nynorsk.
- Regional variations in vowel pronunciation (e.g., /e/ as a diphthong) do not affect syllable division.
