Vowel Onset
Each syllable typically begins with a vowel.
Consonant Coda
Consonant clusters can form the coda (end) of a syllable, as seen with *ng*.
- The consonant cluster *ng* is common and forms the syllable coda.
- Vowel length (/ɔː/ in *gångs*) influences syllable weight and rhythm.
- Regional variations in vowel pronunciation may exist but do not alter syllable division.
