3. Morphemic Analysis:

6. Edge Case Review:

The "s" between "insect" and "iser" could potentially create a syllable boundary, but French generally avoids syllable breaks within consonant clusters unless they are complex (e.g., trans-porter). The liaison rules don't apply here as it's not a phrase.

The word is exclusively a verb. Syllabification doesn't significantly shift based on grammatical role, as it's a conjugated verb form.
