Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless necessary (e.g., 'n' in 'sjon').

Vowel-Centric Division

Syllables are built around vowel sounds, with consonants assigned to the nearest vowel.

  • The consonant cluster 'str' is common and doesn't pose a significant challenge.

  • Regional variations in Nynorsk pronunciation are relatively minor and do not significantly affect syllabification.
