Hyphenation ofrédintégrations

Linguistic Analysis of "rédintégrations" (French)

1. Examination & Pronunciation:

The word "rédintégrations" is a complex noun in French, derived from the verb "réintégrer" (to reintegrate). Its pronunciation involves nasal vowels, liaison possibilities, and a final schwa that may be elided in rapid speech.

2. Syllable Division:

Following French syllabification rules, which prioritize vowel sounds and avoid breaking consonant clusters unless they are difficult to pronounce together, the division is as follows (see JSON output for the orthographic representation).

3. Morphemic Analysis:

• Prefix: ré- (Latin re- meaning "again, back"). Function: Prefixes the verb to indicate repetition or reversal of action.
• Root: intégr- (Latin integrare meaning "to make whole, complete"). Function: The core meaning of the word, relating to wholeness or inclusion.
• Suffix: -ations (French suffix derived from Latin -ationem). Function: Forms a noun from the verb, indicating the action or result of reintegrating.

4. Stress Identification:

In French, stress typically falls on the last syllable of a word or phrase, unless that syllable contains a schwa (e.g., /ə/). In "rédintégrations", the final syllable "-tions" is stressed.

5. Phonetic Transcription:

/ʁe.dɛ̃.te.ɡʁa.sjɔ̃/

6. Edge Case Review:

The "d" between "ré" and "intégr" is a potential point of consideration. However, it's followed by a vowel, and French generally allows single consonants to begin a syllable after a vowel. The nasal vowel /ɛ̃/ in "dɛ̃" is a common feature of French and doesn't pose a syllabification challenge.

7. Grammatical Role:

"Rédintégrations" is primarily a noun. Its syllabification remains consistent regardless of its grammatical function within a sentence.

10. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

While the standard pronunciation is /ʁe.dɛ̃.te.ɡʁa.sjɔ̃/, some speakers might slightly reduce the schwa in "-tions" in very rapid speech, but this doesn't alter the syllabification. Regional variations in the pronunciation of the "r" sound (uvular vs. alveolar) do not affect syllable division.
