- The length and complex morphology of the word require careful application of syllable division rules.
- The '-ng-' cluster is a potential point of variation, but Nynorsk generally allows it as an onset.
- Regional variations in vowel pronunciation might slightly affect the phonetic realization, but not the syllabification.
