Maximize Onsets
Norwegian favors maximizing consonant clusters in the onset of a syllable. This is applied in 'sett', 'vil', and 'kår'.
Vowel as Nucleus
Each syllable must have a vowel as its nucleus.
- Geminate consonant 'tt' in 'sett' creates a heavier syllable but doesn't alter division.
- Regional variations in vowel quality may exist but do not affect syllabification.
