Onset Maximization

Consonant clusters are kept together at the beginning of a syllable (e.g., 'for-', 'nings').

Vowel Sequencing

Each vowel sound typically forms the nucleus of a separate syllable (e.g., 'e').

Sonority Sequencing Principle

Syllables are structured to follow the sonority sequencing principle.

  • The 'ngs' cluster is a potential point of variation, but standard Nynorsk treats it as a valid onset.
  • Regional dialects might exhibit slight variations in vowel pronunciation.
