Maximize Onsets

Consonant clusters are maintained in the onset position whenever possible to create syllables with a more natural flow.

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are not left isolated at the beginning of a syllable unless necessary due to the word's structure.

  • The 'll' cluster is pronounced as a long /lː/ in Nynorsk, but this doesn't affect syllable division.
  • Regional variations in vowel pronunciation are minimal and do not impact syllabification.
