Sonority Sequencing Principle
Syllables are divided to maximize sonority, generally placing consonants after vowels and avoiding complex syllable onsets.
Avoidance of Initial Consonant Clusters
Norwegian prefers to avoid complex consonant clusters at the beginning of a syllable, leading to syllable division after single consonants.
- The double 's' in 'ssend' is treated as a single consonant cluster, influencing the syllable division.
- Compound words in Norwegian can sometimes exhibit variations in syllable division, but the proposed division is the most common and phonologically justifiable.
