Maximize Onsets
Consonant clusters are kept together at the beginning of syllables whenever possible (e.g., 'implosjon').
Morpheme Boundary Principle
Syllable breaks often occur at morpheme boundaries (e.g., between 'implosjon' and 'ssikker').
Vowel-Centric Syllables
Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.
- The 'sj' cluster is treated as a single unit.
- The double 's' in 'ssikker' is a standard feature and doesn't create a syllable break.
- Regional variations in vowel pronunciation may exist but do not affect the core syllabification.
