3. Morphemic Analysis:

• Suffix: -s- (Nynorsk genitive/definite marker, also used to connect compound words). Functions as a linking element.
• Suffix: -økning (Nynorsk, from øka 'to increase' + -ing nominalizing suffix). Indicates an action or process of increasing.

10. Division Rules:

• Onset Maximization: Consonant clusters are generally kept together at the beginning of a syllable (e.g., lik-).
• Avoid Stranded Consonants: Consonants are not left at the end of a syllable unless they are part of a diphthong or triphthong.
• Vowel-Centric Syllables: Each syllable generally contains one vowel sound.

11. Special Considerations:

The compound nature of the word requires careful consideration of morphemic boundaries. The linking 's' can sometimes be a point of ambiguity, but it generally connects the preceding element to the following suffix.

12. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

Some dialects might reduce the vowel in "-itet" to a schwa sound /ə/, but the standard pronunciation maintains the /ɛ/ vowel. This would not significantly alter the syllable division.
