Maximize Onsets

Syllable division prioritizes placing consonants into the onset of the following syllable whenever possible.

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are generally not left as the sole coda of a syllable unless necessary.

Vowel Grouping

Vowel clusters are often treated as a single syllable, but diphthongs are considered as a single vowel within a syllable.

  • The interfix 'ens' can sometimes be ambiguous, but in this case, it clearly connects the two root morphemes.
  • Vowel reduction in unstressed syllables is a common phenomenon in Nynorsk, but does not affect the syllable division.
