Onset Maximization

Norwegian favors maximizing onsets, leading to syllable divisions like 'si' instead of 's-i'.

Vowel Nucleus

Sonority Sequencing Principle

Syllables generally follow a sonority hierarchy.

  • The double consonant 'mm' in 'hjemme' doesn't affect syllable division.
  • Palatalization of /t/ before /i/ is a dialectal variation and doesn't change the syllabic structure.
