The palatalization of /d/ before /i/ is a common phonetic feature but doesn't alter the underlying syllable structure. The compound nature of the word requires careful consideration of morpheme boundaries when determining syllable divisions.

12. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

Regional variations in Nynorsk pronunciation might affect the degree of palatalization or vowel quality, but the core syllable structure remains consistent.
