Maximize Onsets
Nynorsk prioritizes creating syllables with consonant clusters at the beginning (onsets) whenever possible. This is evident in 'rørs' and 'stem'.
Vowel Sequence Rule
Each vowel sound generally forms the nucleus of a separate syllable. However, diphthongs are treated as a single vowel nucleus.
- The 'rs' consonant cluster is a common onset in Nynorsk and doesn't typically cause syllable division issues.
- Double consonants (pp, mm, nn) affect vowel length but don't alter syllable division.
