6. Edge Case Review:

Nynorsk allows for both 'é' and 'e' for the close-mid front vowel. The double consonants 'nn' and 'tt' are common in Nynorsk and influence syllable weight.

7. Grammatical Role:

The word is primarily a noun. Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of grammatical function, as it's a single, inflexible compound noun.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• administrasjon /admiːnɪˈstrasjɔn/ - Syllables: ad-mi-ni-stra-sjon. Shares the characteristic of having multiple syllables and a complex consonant structure.
• parlamentarisk /parlaˌmɛntaˈriːsk/ - Syllables: par-la-men-ta-risk. Demonstrates a similar pattern of stress on a later syllable and consonant clusters.

The differences in syllable division arise from the specific consonant and vowel sequences in each word. "komitéinnstilling" has a more complex combination of prefixes and roots, leading to a longer word and more syllable divisions.

10. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

Regional variations in Nynorsk pronunciation exist, particularly regarding vowel quality. However, these variations generally don't significantly alter the syllable division.

11. Division Rules Applied:

• Onset Maximization: Consonant clusters are generally kept together at the beginning of a syllable (e.g., "st" in "stilling").
• Vowel Peak Principle: Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.
• Sonority Sequencing Principle: Syllables tend to follow a sonority hierarchy (vowels are more sonorous than consonants).
