Maximize Onsets
Consonant clusters are kept together at the beginning of a syllable whenever possible.
Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are not left alone at the end of a syllable unless necessary.
Geminate Consonants
Geminate consonants (double consonants) are treated as a single unit within a syllable, influencing syllable weight.
Vowel Hiatus
Vowel hiatus is avoided by creating syllables around the vowels.
- The geminate 'nn' in 'inngytende' requires special attention as it creates a syllable with only a nasal consonant.
- The 't' before 'in' could potentially be considered part of the onset of the following syllable, but is separated here to maintain clarity and follow standard Nynorsk syllabification.
