Avoidance of Stranded Consonants
Consonants are generally not left at the end of a syllable unless they form part of a diphthong or are geminates.
- The consonant cluster 'nds' is treated as a single onset due to Nynorsk's tolerance for complex onsets.
- The geminate 'n' in 'kjenne' indicates a lengthened sound, but doesn't affect syllable division.
