Open Syllable Preference
Nynorsk favors open syllables (CV) whenever possible. This is evident in the division of 'o-ver' and 'tje-nes-te'.
Sonorant Consonant Rule
Sonorant consonants (like 'n' in 'våk-ning') can often be part of the syllable nucleus, allowing for consonant clusters within syllables.
- The consonant cluster '-våk-' is a potential edge case, but is permissible in Nynorsk.
- Regional variations in pronunciation might affect the precise realization of vowels, but not the syllable division.
