Maximize Onsets
Norwegian syllable division favors creating syllables with consonant clusters at the beginning (onsets) whenever possible.
CV/CVC Structure
The basic syllable structure is Consonant-Vowel (CV) or Consonant-Vowel-Consonant (CVC).
- Geminate consonants (e.g., 'tt' in 'lit-') lengthen the syllable but don't alter the division.
- Compound word structure influences stress placement.
