Nynorsk allows for a degree of flexibility in compound word pronunciation, but the syllable division presented here is the most common and phonologically justifiable.

7. Grammatical Role:

9. Phonological Comparison:

• universitet /ʉnɪvɛrsɪˈteːt/ - u-ni-ver-si-te-t. Similar in having multiple syllables and consonant clusters. The stress pattern differs, falling on the third syllable.
• administrasjon /admiːnɪˈstrɑːʃɔn/ - ad-mi-ni-stra-sjon. Similar in being a loanword with a complex structure. Stress falls on the third syllable.
• informasjon /ɪnfɔrˈmɑːʃɔn/ - in-for-ma-sjon. Similar in being a loanword ending in "-sjon". Stress falls on the third syllable.

The differences in stress placement are due to the inherent stress patterns of the root morphemes and the overall length of the word. Nynorsk generally favors stress on the first syllable of the root, but this can be overridden by longer words or specific morphological structures.

10. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

Regional variations in Nynorsk pronunciation exist, but the syllable division remains consistent. Some dialects might slightly alter vowel qualities, but this doesn't affect the core syllabic structure.

11. Division Rules Applied:

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