Maximize Onsets

The syllable division attempts to include as many consonants as possible in the onset of each syllable.

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are generally not left as the sole consonant in a syllable (unless geminate).

Vowel-Based Division

Syllables are typically divided around vowel sounds.

  • The geminate consonants (nn, gg) influence syllable weight and pronunciation.
  • Nynorsk vowel qualities (e.g., /ʉː/) are important for accurate pronunciation.
  • Regional variations in pronunciation might lead to slight differences in syllable division, but the core principles remain consistent.
