Onset Maximization
Consonant clusters are kept together as onsets whenever possible (e.g., 'br' in 'brekk').
Open Syllable Preference
Nynorsk favors open syllables (CV) over closed syllables (CVC).
Geminate Consonant Rule
Geminate consonants (like 'kk') are generally kept within the same syllable.
Vowel-to-Vowel Separation
Vowel sequences are typically separated into different syllables.
- The geminate 'kk' could theoretically be split, but this is not standard practice in Nynorsk syllabification.
- Regional variations in 'r' pronunciation might affect the perceived length of syllables, but not the division itself.
