Onset Maximization
Consonant clusters are included in the onset of the syllable whenever possible (e.g., 'sliv', 'sko', 'nfe').
Vowel Sequencing
Each vowel generally forms the nucleus of a separate syllable (e.g., 'næ', 'ring', 'se').
Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are not left isolated between syllables without a vowel (e.g., avoiding a division like 'n-æring').
- Regional variations in vowel pronunciation may exist, but do not significantly alter the syllable division.
- The compound nature of the word requires careful consideration of morphemic boundaries, but syllable division is based on phonological structure, not necessarily morphemic boundaries.
