Onset Maximization
Norwegian prefers to include as many consonants as possible in the onset of a syllable.
Vowel Peak

Avoid Stranded Consonants
Consonants are generally not left at the end of a syllable unless they form part of a permissible consonant cluster.
- The 's' linking morpheme doesn't typically create a separate syllable.
- Double consonants are pronounced as geminates, lengthening the consonant sound, but don't affect syllable division.
