Maximize Onsets
The syllable division attempts to create syllables with consonant clusters at the beginning (onsets) whenever possible, such as 'dan' and 'nels'.
Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are generally not left at the end of a syllable unless necessary, as seen in the division of 'fond'.
- The 'nn' cluster in 'dannelses' is a geminate consonant and doesn't affect the syllabification process.
- The 'sf' cluster is a permissible onset in Nynorsk.
- Vowel reduction in unstressed syllables is a common feature of Nynorsk pronunciation, but doesn't alter the syllable division.
