Vowel Sequences

Each vowel generally forms a separate syllable (e.g., 'er', 'sø').

Sonority Sequencing Principle

Syllables tend to follow a sonority hierarchy, with higher sonority elements (vowels) being the nucleus.

  • The 'ds' cluster is generally pronounced in standard Nynorsk, although colloquial speech might simplify it.
  • Geminate consonants (double consonants) like 's' in 'sund' are phonemically significant and must be maintained in the transcription.
