Maximize Onsets
Consonant clusters are kept together at the beginning of a syllable whenever possible (e.g., 'st', 'fort', 'rd').
Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless they form a natural coda (e.g., 'n', 'd').
Vowel-centric Syllabification
Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.
- The 'rd' cluster is treated as a single onset, a common pattern in Nynorsk.
- Regional variations might affect vowel reduction in unstressed syllables, but the core syllabification remains consistent.
