9. Phonological Comparison:

• électrolyse: /e.lek.tʁɔ.liz/ - Syllable division: é-lec-tro-ly-se. Similar structure, but lacks the final suffix.
• électronique: /e.lek.tʁɔ.nik/ - Syllable division: é-lec-tro-ni-que. Shares the "électro-" prefix and similar vowel patterns.
• analyse: /a.na.liz/ - Syllable division: a-na-ly-se. Demonstrates a simpler syllable structure, but shares the "-lyse" root.

The differences in syllable count are due to the addition of the suffix "-asses" in "électrolysasses", which adds an extra syllable. The "tr" cluster remains consistent across all words.

10. Division Rules:

• Rule 1: Open Syllables: Syllables ending in a vowel sound are generally open (e.g., "é-lec-tro").
• Rule 2: Consonant Clusters: Consonant clusters are maintained as onsets or codas unless they can be easily broken into separate pronounceable syllables (e.g., "tr" in "é-lec-tro").
• Rule 3: Vowel Groupings: Vowel groupings are separated into distinct syllables (e.g., "ly-se").
• Rule 4: Final Syllable Stress: Stress typically falls on the final syllable.

11. Special Considerations:

The pronunciation of nasal vowels can vary slightly depending on regional accents. However, the syllabification remains consistent. The "tr" cluster is a common exception to the rule of breaking consonant clusters.
