6. Edge Case Review:

The 'd' in 'doping' can sometimes be slightly palatalized before 'o' in certain dialects, but this doesn't affect the syllabification. The compound nature of the word is a key consideration, as each component retains its internal syllable structure.

7. Grammatical Role:

"Antidopingkomite" functions primarily as a noun. Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of its grammatical role within a sentence.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Word: antidopingkomite
• Part of Speech: Noun (feminine)

9. Phonological Comparison:

• fotballag: fo-tbal-lag (similar syllable structure with consonant clusters)
• universitet: u-ni-ver-si-te-t (longer word with multiple syllables, stress pattern differs)
• datamaskin: da-ta-mas-kin (compound word, similar syllable division principles)

The differences in syllable division arise from the varying consonant and vowel sequences in each word. "Antidopingkomite" has a more complex consonant cluster in the middle ("-ping-ko-"), which influences the division.

10. Division Rules:

• Onset Maximization: Consonant clusters are generally kept together at the beginning of a syllable. (e.g., "do-ping")
• Vowel Peak: Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.
• Sonority Sequencing: Syllables follow a sonority hierarchy, with sounds becoming more sonorous towards the nucleus (vowel).

11. Special Considerations:

The compound nature of the word requires treating each component (anti-, doping, komite) as a unit during syllabification. The suffix '-e' is always attached to the final syllable.

12. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

Regional variations in vowel pronunciation (e.g., the 'o' in 'doping') might exist, but these do not significantly alter the syllabification.
