Vowel Hiatus Avoidance

Syllable breaks occur before or after vowels to avoid vowel hiatus.

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are generally not left at the end of a syllable unless they form part of a valid consonant cluster.

  • The geminate consonant 'tt' in 'stat' is a common feature of Nynorsk and influences syllable weight.
  • Vowel reduction in unstressed syllables is possible but does not affect syllable division.
