Onset Maximization

Consonant clusters are maintained within the onset of a syllable whenever possible.

Sonority Sequencing Principle

Syllables generally follow a sonority hierarchy, with vowels being more sonorous than consonants.

Avoidance of Initial Consonant Clusters

Nynorsk tends to avoid syllables beginning with complex consonant clusters if possible, though this is not a strict rule.

  • The long consonant clusters (-nts-, -sk-) are typical in Nynorsk and do not pose significant syllabification challenges.
  • Regional variations in vowel quality may exist, but do not substantially alter syllable division.
