Maximize Onsets
Consonant clusters are generally kept together at the beginning of a syllable (e.g., 'dr' in 'dre').
Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless they are part of a diphthong or a permissible coda.
Vowel-centric Syllabification
Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.
- The geminate consonant 'tt' in 'tte' is a common feature of Nynorsk and influences the syllable weight.
- Vowel reduction in unstressed syllables (e.g., 'se') is a common phonetic phenomenon but doesn't alter the syllabic structure.
