3. Morphemic Analysis:

• for-: Prefix, originating from Old Norse fyrir, meaning "for, in front of, regarding". Morphological function: prepositional prefix.

• Onset Maximization: Consonant clusters are kept together at the beginning of syllables whenever possible (e.g., "for-", "val-").
• Avoidance of Single-Letter Syllables: Syllables are not created with a single vowel as the only element (e.g., "nings").
• Vowel-Based Division: Syllables are generally divided around vowel sounds.

11. Special Considerations:

The "ltn" cluster requires careful consideration, but it's acceptable in Nynorsk. Regional variations in vowel pronunciation might exist, but they don't significantly alter the syllable division.
