Maximize Onsets

Consonant clusters are maintained at the beginning of syllables whenever possible (e.g., 'svur').

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless necessary due to vowel sequences or other constraints.

Vowel Grouping

Vowels are grouped into syllables based on sonority and phonotactic constraints.

  • The *hnd* consonant cluster is permissible in Nynorsk despite its complexity.
  • The linking vowel *-s-* is a common feature in compound verbs.
  • Regional variations in vowel pronunciation might slightly affect syllable boundaries, but the overall division remains consistent.
