Onset Maximization

Swedish prioritizes creating syllables with consonant clusters at the beginning (onsets) whenever possible.

Avoid Stranded Consonants

Consonants are generally not left at the end of a syllable unless necessary due to the word's structure.

  • The long consonant /lː/ in 'trol' influences the syllable division.
  • The glide /j/ in 'ge' is considered part of the syllable onset.
