6. Edge Case Review:

Norwegian allows for relatively complex consonant clusters, which can sometimes lead to ambiguity in syllable division. However, the rules generally prioritize keeping consonant clusters intact within a syllable if possible.

10. Syllable Division Rules Applied:

• Onset Maximization: Consonant clusters are generally kept together in the onset of a syllable (e.g., 'ma' in 'maskin').
• Vowel Peak: Each syllable must contain a vowel.
• Sonority Sequencing: Syllables follow a sonority hierarchy, with sounds becoming more sonorous towards the nucleus (vowel).

11. Special Considerations:

The word is a compound, and the syllable division reflects the boundaries between the constituent morphemes. The 't' at the end of 'datamaskinen' is not part of the syllable division of 'datamaskinkapasitet'.

12. Regional Variations:

While the syllable division is generally consistent across Norwegian dialects, pronunciation of vowels can vary. This might affect the perceived length of syllables but doesn't change the core syllable structure.
