Maximize Onsets
Nynorsk prioritizes creating syllables with consonant clusters at the beginning (onsets) whenever possible. This is evident in 'front' and 'led'.
Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are generally not left at the end of a syllable unless necessary. This is why 'del' is not divided further.
- The 'ld' cluster is generally maintained in standard Nynorsk, despite potential simplification in colloquial speech.
- Vowel qualities /e/ and /ø/ are crucial distinctions in Nynorsk pronunciation and affect syllable perception.
