Maximize Onsets

Nynorsk prioritizes creating syllables with consonant clusters at the beginning (onsets) whenever possible.

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are generally not left at the end of a syllable unless necessary due to vowel sequences or morpheme boundaries.

  • The 'd' in 'setnad' can be softened in some dialects, but this doesn't affect the syllabification.
  • Compound words in Nynorsk often follow these syllable division rules consistently.
