Onset Maximization

Norwegian prefers to include as many consonants as possible in the onset of a syllable.

Vowel Peak

Each syllable must contain a vowel (or diphthong) as its nucleus.

Sonority Sequencing Principle

Syllable structure generally follows a sonority hierarchy.

  • The 'øy' diphthong is treated as a single vowel sound within a syllable.
  • The palatal nasal /ɲ/ forms the coda of the final syllable.
