• Grammatical Category: Noun (masculine or feminine, depending on context)
• Synonyms: kontrollteknikk (control technique), styringsteknikk (steering technique)

• "informasjonsteknologi" /ɪnfɔrmaːˈsjønsteknɔlɔɡi/ - 7 syllables: in-for-ma-sjon-s-tek-no-lo-gi. Demonstrates the use of the linking 's' and multiple syllables within compound words.

The differences in syllable count are due to the length and complexity of the root words and the number of morphemes involved.

10. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

Regional variations in Nynorsk pronunciation are relatively minor. Some dialects might slightly alter vowel qualities, but the syllable division would remain largely consistent.

11. Division Rules Applied:

• Onset-Rime Principle: Syllables are formed around a vowel nucleus, with preceding consonants forming the onset and following consonants forming the rime.
• Sonority Sequencing Principle: Consonant clusters are maintained as long as they adhere to the sonority hierarchy (sounds become less sonorous from syllable onset to coda).
• Avoidance of Isolated Consonants: Nynorsk generally avoids leaving single consonants as syllable onsets or codas unless they are part of a larger cluster.
