3. Morphemic Analysis:

7. Grammatical Role:

"Fosfortilførsel" is primarily a noun. Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of its grammatical function within a sentence.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Definition: The process of adding phosphorus.
• Translation: Phosphorus supply/addition.
• Grammatical Category: Noun (feminine gender).
• Synonyms: Fosfortilsetting (more common in Bokmål)

10. Syllable Division Rules Applied:

• Onset Maximization: Attempting to create syllables with as many initial consonants as possible (e.g., "fos-", "til-", "før-").
• Avoidance of Stranded Consonants: No consonant should be left alone as a syllable.
• Vowel-Centric Syllables: Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.

11. Special Considerations:

The compound nature of the word requires careful consideration of morpheme boundaries. The 'til' prefix is often pronounced quickly and can sometimes blend with the following syllable, but maintaining the separate syllables is crucial for accurate analysis.

12. Regional Variations:

While the syllable division is relatively consistent, some regional dialects might exhibit slight variations in vowel pronunciation or stress placement. However, the core syllable structure remains the same.
