Maximize Onsets

Syllables are formed by maximizing the number of consonants in the onset, while respecting the phonotactic constraints of Norwegian.

Vowel as Syllable Nucleus

Each syllable must contain a vowel, which serves as the nucleus.

  • The use of 'sj' instead of 'skj' for the /ʃ/ sound is a standard Nynorsk variation.
  • Geminate consonants (double 's' in 'selskap') are phonemically significant and affect syllable weight.
