Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless they form a natural coda (e.g., 'sjon').

Vowel-Initial Syllables

Each vowel typically begins a new syllable (e.g., 'a' in 'tu-a').

  • The /ps/ cluster is common and doesn't affect syllabification.
  • Labialization of /t/ (/tʷ/) is a typical Nynorsk feature.
  • Regional variations in vowel quality might exist but do not alter the core syllabification.
