Open Syllable Principle

Vowels generally form the nucleus of a syllable. Syllables are divided to maximize open syllables (ending in a vowel).

Maximizing Onsets

Consonant clusters are preferred at the beginning of a syllable (onset) rather than at the end (coda).

  • Nynorsk allows for more consonant clusters than Bokmål.
  • Regional variations in vowel quality and 'r' pronunciation may exist, but do not significantly affect syllable division.
