Nynorsk allows for both "té" and "et" as definite article suffixes, depending on dialect. "Té" is more common in written Nynorsk. Syllabification of consonant clusters like "nsk" can be variable, but generally, the consonant is attached to the following vowel.

7. Grammatical Role:

"granskingskomité" functions solely as a noun. Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of grammatical context (as it's a fixed compound).

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Definition: A committee formed to conduct an investigation.
• Translation: Investigation committee
• Grammatical Category: Noun (feminine/neuter depending on context, but generally treated as neuter with the definite article)
• Synonyms: Undersøkingsutval (investigation committee), granskingsgruppe (investigation group)
• Antonyms: (Difficult to provide a direct antonym, as it's a functional term. Perhaps beslutningskomité - decision committee)
• Examples:
  • "Ei granskingskomité vart oppretta for å undersøke saka." (An investigation committee was established to investigate the case.)
  • "Komitéen la fram si rapport." (The committee presented its report.)

9. Phonological Comparison:

• informasjon (information): /ˌɪnfɔɾˈmasjɔn/ - Syllables: in-for-mas-jon. Similar consonant clusters and syllable structure. Stress on the third syllable.

The differences in stress placement are due to the inherent rhythmic patterns of the compound words and the weight of the syllables. "granskingskomité" has a longer first element, leading to initial stress.

10. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

Regional variations in Nynorsk pronunciation exist, particularly regarding vowel qualities and the realization of consonant clusters. However, the syllable division remains largely consistent. Some dialects might slightly reduce the vowel in "té" to /ə/.

• Vowel-Centric Syllabification: Each syllable contains a vowel sound.
• Compound Word Syllabification: Compound words are divided based on the morphemic boundaries and phonological structure of each component.
