Onset Maximization

Prioritizes creating syllables with onsets (consonant sounds at the beginning of a syllable).

Vowel-Initial Syllable

Syllables beginning with vowels are readily formed.

Consonant Cluster Resolution

Consonant clusters are resolved by maximizing onsets and avoiding stranded consonants.

  • The geminate consonant 'nː' in 'lønns' does not trigger syllable division.
  • Regional variations in the pronunciation of the retroflex /ɾ/ might affect the perceived syllable boundary in 'ran', but not the syllabification.
