Onset Maximization

Consonant clusters are kept together as onsets whenever possible (e.g., 'st' in 'forestilling').

Open Syllable Preference

Nynorsk favors open syllables (ending in a vowel) where possible.

Morpheme Boundary Consideration

Syllable division often respects morpheme boundaries, but is not absolute.

  • Regional variations in the pronunciation of geminate consonants (like 'll' in 'bilde') could affect the perceived syllable boundaries.
  • The linking 's' between the two noun components is a common feature and doesn't typically trigger a separate syllable.
