Onset Maximization

Consonant clusters are kept together at the beginning of a syllable (e.g., 'stikk', 'trøll').

Vowel-Centric Syllables

Avoidance of Stranded Consonants

Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless they form part of a permissible consonant cluster.

  • The double consonants (kk, ll) do not pose a significant challenge to syllabification.
  • Regional variations in vowel pronunciation may exist, but do not affect syllable division.
