Onset Maximization

Consonant clusters are kept together at the beginning of a syllable whenever possible (e.g., 'ret', 'tig').

Vowel Sequencing

Each vowel generally forms the nucleus of a separate syllable (e.g., 'men', 'ke', 'be').

Sonority Sequencing

Syllables follow a sonority hierarchy, with higher sonority elements (vowels) being more prominent.

  • The double consonants ('tt' in 'rettighets') are crucial for pronunciation and syllable structure.
  • Norwegian allows some flexibility in syllable division, but the proposed division avoids stranded consonants.
