Onset Maximization
Consonant clusters are maintained within syllables if permissible in Norwegian phonotactics (e.g., 'nt' in 'ent').
Open Syllable Preference
Syllables are formed to be open (CV) whenever possible, leading to divisions like 'pa-si'.
Vowel Nucleus
Each syllable must contain a vowel sound, dictating syllable boundaries.
- The 'sj' cluster is a common feature and doesn't significantly alter syllabification.
- Regional variations in vowel pronunciation might exist but don't affect the core syllable division.
