Maximize Onsets
Nynorsk syllable division prioritizes creating syllables with consonant clusters at the beginning (onsets) whenever possible.
Consonant-Vowel (CV)
Basic syllable structure rule: a consonant followed by a vowel forms a syllable.
Consonant Cluster-Vowel (CCV)
Permissible consonant clusters at the beginning of a syllable are allowed.
- The 'skj' cluster is a common feature of Norwegian and doesn't present a significant edge case.
- Regional variations might affect the pronunciation of the 'kj' sound (e.g., /kʲ/), but this doesn't alter the syllable division.
