Hyphenation ofentrelardassiez

Analysis of "entrelardassiez" (French)

1. Pronunciation: The word "entrelardassiez" is pronounced with a complex sequence of sounds, typical of French verb conjugations. It's a relatively uncommon word, adding to the challenge.

2. Syllable Division: Following French syllabification rules, which prioritize vowel sounds and avoid breaking consonant clusters unless they are pronounced as separate syllables, the division is as follows (see JSON output for the orthographic representation).

3. Morphemic Analysis:

• Prefix: en- (Latin origin, prefix indicating 'in' or 'within', functioning as an intensifier or to initiate an action)
• Root: lard- (from larder, ultimately from Old French lard, meaning 'bacon, fat')
• Suffix: -assiez (complex suffix indicating the 2nd person plural imperfect subjunctive mood. Derived from the Latin -atis and the French imperfect subjunctive ending -iez.)

4. Stress Identification: French generally has stress on the final syllable of a phrase or breath group. In this case, the final syllable "-iez" receives the primary stress.

5. Phonetic Transcription: /ɑ̃.tʁə.laʁ.das.je/

6. Edge Case Review: The consonant cluster "rd" is a potential point of difficulty. However, in French, "rd" is generally treated as a single unit within a syllable, especially when followed by a vowel. The "ss" is also a potential point, but it's a geminate consonant and remains within the syllable.

7. Grammatical Role: This word is exclusively the 2nd person plural imperfect subjunctive of the verb entrelarder (to interlard, to strew with bacon). Syllabification doesn't shift based on grammatical role as it's a conjugated verb form.

9. Phonological Comparison:

• "entrelacs" (interlacings): ɑ̃.tʁə.lak. The "lac" syllable is a clear comparison, showing how vowel clusters define syllable boundaries.
• "entassiez" (imperfect subjunctive of entasser - to pile up): ɑ̃.ta.se. This shows how the "-iez" ending consistently forms a final syllable.
