Onset Maximization
Swedish prefers to include as many consonants as possible in the onset of a syllable, as seen in 'kstab'.
Vowel Sequencing
Each vowel generally forms the nucleus of its own syllable, leading to the division between 'hu' and 'vud'.
Coda Maximization
Similar to onsets, Swedish allows relatively large consonant clusters in the coda, as seen in 'ter' and 'nas'.
- Vowel length can vary slightly depending on dialect.
- The pronunciation of /ɵ/ can also vary regionally.
- Geminate consonants (double consonants) are common and affect syllable weight.
