Open Syllable Preference
Nynorsk favors open syllables (CV) whenever possible. This is applied throughout the word.
Vowel Cluster Separation
Vowel clusters are generally separated into distinct syllables (e.g., 'ste', 'nel').
Consonant Cluster Accommodation
Consonant clusters are permitted within syllables, especially when they form a recognizable morpheme (e.g., 'td' in 'utdan').
- The 'td' cluster in 'utdan' is a potential edge case, but is acceptable due to its morphemic integrity.
- The final 'e' is often reduced to a schwa /ə/ in rapid speech, but does not affect syllable division.
