Nynorsk allows for both "hard" and "soft" pronunciation of consonants. In this word, the 's' is generally pronounced as /ʃ/ (voiceless postalveolar fricative) but regional variations exist. The 't' in 'avtale' can be dental or alveolar depending on dialect.

7. Grammatical Role:

"Kommisjonsavtale" functions solely as a noun. Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of its grammatical context within a sentence.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• kommisjonsavtale (noun)
  • Definitions: An agreement where a commission is paid for services rendered or goods sold.
  • Translation: Commission agreement
  • Synonyms: provisjonsavtale (provision agreement)

  • Examples:
    • "Han signerte ein kommisjonsavtale med megleren." (He signed a commission agreement with the broker.)

9. Phonological Comparison:

• informasjon (information): in-for-ma-sjon - Similar syllable structure with consonant clusters. Stress on the first syllable.
• situasjon (situation): si-tu-a-sjon - Similar ending "-sjon", indicating a noun. Stress on the first syllable.
• organisasjon (organization): or-ga-ni-sa-sjon - Again, the "-sjon" suffix and similar stress pattern.

The key difference lies in the initial consonant clusters. "Kommisjonsavtale" has a simpler onset than "informasjon" or "organisasjon", but the principle of maximizing onsets still applies.

10. Division Rules:

• Onset Maximization: Consonant clusters are generally kept together at the beginning of a syllable (e.g., kom-).
• Vowel-Centric Syllables: Each syllable typically contains one vowel sound.
• Sonority Sequencing: Syllable structure follows the sonority sequencing principle, with sounds decreasing in sonority from the nucleus outwards.

11. Special Considerations:

The compound nature of the word requires careful consideration of morpheme boundaries. However, syllable division is based on phonological structure, not necessarily morpheme boundaries.
