The consistent stress pattern on the second syllable in these compound nouns demonstrates a common phonological feature of Nynorsk. The differences in syllable division arise from the varying consonant clusters and vowel sequences within each word.

10. Division Rules:

• Vowel Peak Rule: Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.
• Onset-Rime Rule: Syllables are divided into an onset (consonants before the vowel) and a rime (vowel and any following consonants).
• Consonant Cluster Rule: Consonant clusters are generally split to maximize onsets, but geminate consonants (double consonants) remain within the same syllable.
• Compound Word Rule: Syllable division follows the individual morphemes within the compound word.

11. Special Considerations:

The geminate consonant 'nn' in 'danning' is a key feature of Nynorsk orthography and pronunciation. It influences the syllable weight and duration.
