Maximize Onsets

The syllable division attempts to include as many consonants as possible in the onset of each syllable (e.g., 'sj' in 'sjons').

Vowel Sequences

Vowel sequences are generally divided based on the inherent sonority hierarchy, creating distinct nuclei.

Consonant Clusters

Consonant clusters are analyzed to determine permissible onsets and codas according to Nynorsk phonotactics.

  • The 'sj' cluster is treated as a single onset, a common feature in Norwegian.
  • Nynorsk has a relatively weak stress system, so the primary stress is subtle but present on the root syllable.
  • Regional variations in vowel pronunciation might slightly affect the phonetic transcription, but not the syllable division.
