Onset Maximization
Norwegian prefers to include as many consonants as possible in the onset of a syllable, as seen in 'str' and 'pl'.
Vowel Break
Each vowel generally forms the nucleus of a separate syllable, leading to the division between 'straffe' and 'rets'.
- The double 'f' in 'straffe-' lengthens the consonant sound but doesn't affect syllable division.
- Regional variations in vowel pronunciation might exist but wouldn't significantly alter the syllable division.
