Vowel-Coda Rule

Syllables generally begin with a vowel sound. Consonants following vowels typically form the coda of the preceding syllable.

Consonant Cluster Rule

Norwegian allows certain consonant clusters in the coda position (e.g., /sk/, /ʃ/). These clusters are treated as a single unit for syllabification.

  • The compound nature of the word doesn't alter the basic syllabification rules.
  • Regional variations in vowel pronunciation might exist, but they don't affect the syllable division.
