• organisasjon: o-rga-ni-sa-sjon. Similar structure, stress on the third syllable.
• distribusjon: dis-tri-bu-sjon. Similar structure, stress on the second syllable.

The differences in stress placement are due to the varying weight of the syllables and the inherent stress patterns of the borrowed Latinate roots. "Produksjonsbedrift" has a more even distribution of stress due to the compound structure.

10. Division Rules:

• Onset Maximization: Consonant clusters are generally kept together at the beginning of a syllable (e.g., pro-, ks-, dr-, str-).
• Vowel Peak: Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.
• Sonority Sequencing: Syllables follow a sonority hierarchy, with sounds becoming more sonorous towards the nucleus (vowel).

11. Special Considerations:

The 'j' sound /j/ is often treated as part of the following vowel in terms of syllabification, creating diphthongs or triphthongs. However, in this case, it's treated as part of the onset of the syllable.

Regional variations in Nynorsk pronunciation might affect the realization of certain vowels or consonants, but the core syllable division remains consistent.
