3. Morphemic Analysis:

• Prefix: ré- (Latin, intensifying prefix, meaning "again," "anew")
• Root: arrange- (French, from Old French arange, ultimately from Latin ordinare – to order, arrange)
• Suffix: -assent (French, present indicative third-person plural ending, derived from Latin -ant + -s). This suffix indicates the verb conjugation.

French generally has stress on the final syllable of a phrase or breath group. In this case, the final syllable "-sent" receives the primary stress.

5. Phonetic Transcription:

/ʁe.ʁa.ʒɑ̃.t‿a.sɑ̃/

6. Edge Case Review:

The liaison between the final 't' of "réarrange" and the 'a' of "assent" is a common feature of French phonology. The 't' is not pronounced in isolation but is pronounced when followed by a vowel sound.

7. Grammatical Role:

The word is exclusively a verb form. Syllabification remains consistent regardless of its function within a sentence.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Part of Speech: Verb (present indicative, third-person plural)

9. Phonological Comparison:

• "arrangement": /a.ʁɑ̃.ʒə.mɑ̃/ - Syllable division: a-rran-ge-ment. Similar structure with nasal vowels.
• "dérangement": /de.ʁɑ̃.ʒə.mɑ̃/ - Syllable division: dé-ran-ge-ment. Similar structure, with a prefix.
• "remplacement": /ʁɛ̃.pla.sə.mɑ̃/ - Syllable division: rem-pla-ce-ment. Similar ending, but different vowel sounds and initial consonant clusters.

The syllable structure in "réarrangeassent" is more complex due to the repeated vowel sounds and the presence of the intensifying prefix "ré-". The other words demonstrate the typical French syllable structure of (C)V(C), where C represents a consonant and V represents a vowel.

While the standard pronunciation is as transcribed above, some regional variations might exist in the pronunciation of nasal vowels. However, these variations do not significantly affect the syllable division.

11. Division Rules Applied:

• Rule 1: Vowel-Based Division: Syllables are generally formed around vowel sounds.
• Rule 2: Consonant Cluster Handling: Consonant clusters are kept together unless they can be easily separated into pronounceable syllables.
• Rule 3: Liaison: Liaison between words affects pronunciation but not syllable division.
• Rule 4: Prefix/Suffix Separation: Prefixes and suffixes are generally treated as separate syllables if they contain a vowel sound.
