Onset-Rime Syllabification
Syllables are formed around a vowel nucleus, with preceding consonants forming the onset and following consonants forming the coda.
Avoidance of Initial Consonant Clusters
Swedish avoids syllable-initial consonant clusters where possible, leading to syllable breaks before vowels.
- The 'dr' cluster is a common onset and doesn't pose a syllabification challenge.
- The geminate consonant 'nː' in '-ens' is typical of Swedish and doesn't affect syllable division.
