Hyphenation ofrevisjonskomite

Linguistic Analysis of "revisjonskomite" (Norwegian Nynorsk)

1. Pronunciation Considerations:

The word "revisjonskomite" is pronounced with a relatively consistent vowel quality across its syllables. The 'j' represents the sound /j/, and the 's' is typically voiced between vowels. The final 'e' is pronounced.

2. Syllable Division:

Following Nynorsk syllable division rules, which generally favor maximizing onsets (consonant clusters at the beginning of a syllable), the word is divided as follows (see JSON output for the orthographic representation).

3. Morphemic Analysis:

• revisjons-: Prefix/Root: Derived from the Norwegian word "revisjon" (revision, audit), ultimately from Latin "revisio" (examination). Morphological function: Indicates the action or process related to auditing/revision.
• komite: Root: Borrowed from French "comité", ultimately from Latin "comitatus" (companionship, retinue). Morphological function: Denotes a committee.

4. Stress Identification:

The primary stress falls on the second syllable: re-vis-jons-ko-mi-te.

5. Phonetic Transcription:

/ɾeˈviʃɔnsˌkɔmɪtə/

6. Edge Case Review:

Nynorsk allows for a relatively free flow of consonant clusters, so the 'sj' cluster is permissible within a syllable. The 'komite' portion is a relatively straightforward borrowing and doesn't present significant syllabification challenges.

7. Grammatical Role:

"Revisjonskomite" functions primarily as a noun. Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of grammatical context.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Definition: A committee responsible for auditing or revision.
• Grammatical Category: Noun (feminine gender)

9. Phonological Comparison:

• administrasjon: a-dmi-nis-tra-sjon. Similar syllable structure with consonant clusters. Stress on the third syllable.
• organisasjon: o-rga-ni-sa-sjon. Similar syllable structure and borrowing pattern. Stress on the third syllable.
• informasjon: i-nfor-ma-sjon. Similar syllable structure with consonant clusters. Stress on the third syllable.

The consistent stress pattern on the penultimate or antepenultimate syllable in these borrowed words is a common feature of Nynorsk. The syllable division rules are applied similarly, maximizing onsets where possible.

10. Division Rules:

• Onset Maximization: Consonant clusters are generally kept together at the beginning of a syllable (e.g., "re-vis-").
• Vowel Peak: Each syllable must contain a vowel sound.
• Sonority Sequencing: Syllables follow a sonority hierarchy, with sounds becoming more sonorous towards the nucleus (vowel).

11. Special Considerations:

The 'j' sound can sometimes be ambiguous, but in this case, it clearly functions as a consonant initiating the second syllable.

12. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

Regional variations in Nynorsk pronunciation are minimal for this word. However, some dialects might slightly alter the vowel qualities. This would not significantly affect the syllable division.
