Onset Maximization

Consonant clusters are kept together at the beginning of a syllable (e.g., 'st-' in 'stil-').

Vowel Peak Principle

Each syllable must contain a vowel.

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are not left alone between syllables unless they form part of a diphthong or consonant cluster.

  • The 'ng' cluster is typically split across syllables in Norwegian.
  • Regional variations in vowel pronunciation may exist but do not affect syllable division.
