Onset Maximization

Norwegian favors maximizing consonant clusters in the onset of a syllable, as seen in 'slut' and 'nings'.

Vowel Centering

Each syllable generally contains one vowel sound, guiding the division between consonant clusters and vowels.

Sonority Sequencing

Syllable structure follows the sonority sequencing principle, with sounds decreasing in sonority from the nucleus outwards.

  • The realization of /v/ as /v/ or /ʋ/ depending on dialect does not affect syllabification.
  • Compound nouns in Norwegian generally follow a consistent stress pattern, with stress on the penultimate syllable.
