Maximize Onsets

The syllable division attempts to include as many consonants as possible in the onset of a syllable, following the principle of maximizing onsets.

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are generally not left at the end of a syllable unless they form a legitimate coda (e.g., /ns/ in 'lønns').

  • The 'nn' cluster in 'lønns' could potentially be simplified in very rapid speech, but the standard pronunciation retains both 'n's.
  • The 'ut' prefix is relatively fixed in pronunciation and syllable division.
