Word Parts
Open Syllable Preference
Swedish favors open syllables (CV) whenever possible. Syllables are divided to maximize open syllables.
Consonant Cluster Tolerance
Consonant clusters are permitted at the end of syllables, but syllable division attempts to avoid breaking up consonant clusters within a syllable.
- The long vowels /aː/ and /iː/ do not pose any special syllabification challenges.
- The geminate consonant /nː/ at the end of the word is a standard feature of Swedish phonology and doesn't affect syllable division.
