Norwegian favors creating syllables with consonant clusters at the beginning (onsets) whenever possible.

Consonant-Vowel (CV)

Basic syllable structure rule: a consonant followed by a vowel forms a syllable.

Consonant-Vowel-Consonant (CVC)

A consonant followed by a vowel and then a consonant forms a closed syllable.

  • Geminate consonants (double 'r') lengthen the preceding vowel.
  • Regional variations in vowel quality are possible, but do not affect syllable division.
