Syllables are structured to follow the sonority sequencing principle, with sounds becoming more sonorous towards the nucleus.

  • The 'sj' cluster is a common feature of Norwegian and doesn't present a significant challenge to syllabification.
  • Regional variations in vowel pronunciation may exist, but do not alter the syllable division.
