Onset Maximization

Consonant clusters are generally kept together in the onset of a syllable to create permissible syllable structures.

Vowel Peak Principle

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

Sonority Sequencing Principle

Syllables tend to follow a sonority hierarchy, with more sonorous sounds (vowels) closer to the nucleus and less sonorous sounds (consonants) towards the periphery.

  • The 'vings' cluster could theoretically be split, but the tendency in Norwegian is to keep consonant clusters together.
  • Regional variations in the pronunciation of 'r' do not affect syllable division.
