Onset-Rime Principle
Syllables are formed around a vowel nucleus, with preceding consonants forming the onset and following consonants forming the coda.
Avoid Breaking Consonant Clusters

Vowel Hiatus
When two vowels occur consecutively, they typically form separate syllables.
- The 'sj' cluster is treated as a single onset.
- The long vowel /jøː/ is a characteristic feature of Nynorsk pronunciation.
- Nynorsk generally avoids diphthongs where Bokmål might use them.
