The 'g' is a voiced velar fricative /ɣ/, and the 'r' is typically a uvular approximant /ʁ/ or alveolar tap /ɾ/ depending on the region.

2. Syllable Division:

Following Dutch syllabification rules, which prioritize vowel sounds and avoid splitting diphthongs or consonant clusters where possible, the word breaks down as follows (see "syllable_division" in the JSON output).

3. Morphemic Analysis:

• Prefix: re- (Latin, meaning "again," "back") - morphological function: repetition.
• Root: integratie (Latin integratio via French) - meaning "integration."

6. Edge Case Review:

Dutch allows for some flexibility in syllable division, particularly with consonant clusters. However, the division presented here is the most common and phonologically justifiable. The 'sch' cluster is treated as a single unit.

9. Phonological Comparison:

• 'communicatie': /kɔ.my.ni.ˈkaː.ti/ - Similar vowel structure and stress pattern.
• 'organisatie': /ɔr.ɣa.ni.ˈsaː.tsi/ - Shares the '-atie' suffix and similar stress.
• 'participatie': /paʁ.ti.si.ˈpaː.tsi/ - Similar vowel structure and stress pattern.

The differences in syllable division arise from the varying consonant clusters preceding vowels. 're-integratieopdrachten' has more complex clusters, requiring more syllable boundaries.

10. Division Rules:

• Onset Principle: Syllables begin with consonants.
• Sonority Sequencing Principle: Syllables prefer a sonority peak (vowel).
• Avoid Diphthong Splitting: Diphthongs are kept within a single syllable.
• Consonant Cluster Resolution: Consonant clusters are broken up based on sonority, prioritizing the preservation of onsets.

11. Special Considerations:

The 'sch' cluster is treated as a single onset. Regional variations in 'r' pronunciation do not affect syllable division.
