3. Morphemic Analysis:

6. Edge Case Review:

Dutch syllabification can be complex with consonant clusters. The 'ver-' prefix is often treated as a single syllable, even though it contains two letters. The '-ings-' sequence is also a common pattern and is generally treated as a single syllable unit.

7. Grammatical Role:

"verwijderingsbeleid" functions solely as a noun. Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of its grammatical context within a sentence.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Definition: The policy or set of rules concerning the removal or deletion of something.
• Translation: Removal policy
• Grammatical Category: Noun (het verwijderingsbeleid)
• Synonyms: verwijderingsrichtlijn (removal guideline), verwijderingsprocedure (removal procedure)
• Antonyms: behoudsbeleid (preservation policy)
• Examples:
  • "Het bedrijf heeft een nieuw verwijderingsbeleid ingevoerd." (The company has introduced a new removal policy.)
  • "Volgens het verwijderingsbeleid worden oude bestanden automatisch verwijderd." (According to the removal policy, old files are automatically deleted.)

9. Phonological Comparison:

• verwijdering: /vərˈʋɛidərɪŋ/ - Similar syllable structure, stress on the second syllable. The absence of "-sbeleid" simplifies the structure.
• beleidsvorming: /bəˈlɛitsfɔrmɪŋ/ - Shares the "-beleid" suffix, but the prefix changes the syllable count and stress.
• verwijderingsprogramma: /vərˈʋɛidərɪŋsproˈɣrɑmə/ - Similar prefix and root, but the addition of "-programma" extends the word and alters the stress pattern.

10. Division Rules:

• Open Syllable Preference: Dutch favors open syllables (ending in a vowel). This influences the division of "ver-wij-der-ings-be-leid".
• Consonant Cluster Avoidance: Consonant clusters are generally kept together unless they are complex or disrupt the open syllable preference.
• Morpheme Boundaries: Syllable division often respects morpheme boundaries, but this is not a strict rule.

11. Special Considerations:

The 'ij' digraph is pronounced as a diphthong /ɛi/ or /œi/ depending on the region. This doesn't affect the syllable division, but it impacts the phonetic realization. Regional variations in vowel pronunciation might exist, but the core syllabification remains consistent.
