Maximize Onsets

Nynorsk favors placing as many consonants as possible at the beginning of a syllable (onset).

Vowel Sequences

Vowel sequences are generally broken at the vowel boundary, creating separate syllables.

Consonant Clusters

Consonant clusters are often maintained within a syllable, especially at the onset.

  • The double 's' in 'ssøk' is a permissible consonant cluster in Nynorsk and doesn't require special syllabification treatment.
  • Stress placement can be influenced by the length and prominence of the initial morphemes in compound words.
