Maximize Onsets
Consonant clusters are kept together at the beginning of a syllable whenever possible (e.g., 'søks', 'verk').
Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless necessary (e.g., 'semd' has a coda /d/).
- The 'ks' cluster is treated as part of the onset.
- Vowel 'ø' pronunciation is relatively consistent but can be challenging for non-native speakers.
