6. Edge Case Review:

Nynorsk allows for both 'hard' and 'soft' pronunciations of consonants, but the syllable division remains consistent regardless. The 'd' between vowels is often a sonorant, but doesn't affect the syllable structure.

• datamaskin (computer): da-ta-ma-skin. Different syllable structure, but demonstrates the tendency to break up consonant clusters when possible.

10. Syllable Division Rules Applied:

• Onset Maximization: Consonant clusters are generally kept together in the onset of a syllable (e.g., "re-ser-").
• Vowel Peak: Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.
• Sonority Sequencing Principle: Syllables tend to follow a sonority hierarchy (vowels are most sonorous, followed by semi-vowels, fricatives, nasals, and finally stops).

11. Special Considerations:

The compound nature of the word requires careful consideration of morpheme boundaries, but the syllable division rules are applied consistently across the entire word.

12. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

Regional variations in the pronunciation of 'r' (e.g., trilled vs. alveolar) do not affect the syllable division.
