Hyphenation ofsammenlikningsresultat

Norwegian Nynorsk Word Analysis: sammenlikningsresultat

1. Examination & Pronunciation:

The word "sammenlikningsresultat" is a compound noun in Norwegian Nynorsk, meaning "comparison result". It's a relatively long word, and its pronunciation follows the typical Nynorsk rules, which prioritize clear vowel articulation and avoid diphthongization where Standard Norwegian (Bokmål) might have it.

2. Syllable Division:

Following Nynorsk syllable division rules, which generally favor maximizing onsets (consonant clusters at the beginning of a syllable) and respecting vowel quality, the division is as follows (detailed in the JSON output).

3. Morphemic Analysis:

• sammen-: Prefix, origin: Old Norse sam- meaning "together, with". Morphological function: Adverbial prefix indicating a collective or combined action.
• liknings-: Root, derived from like (to resemble, compare). Origin: Old Norse líkr. Morphological function: Forms the core meaning of comparison.
• resultat: Suffix/Root, borrowed from French résultat via Danish/Norwegian. Origin: Latin resultatum. Morphological function: Indicates the outcome or consequence.

4. Stress Identification:

The primary stress falls on the penult (second-to-last) syllable: re-sul-tat.

5. Phonetic Transcription:

/ˈsɑmːənˌlɪkːnɪŋsˌrɛsʊlˌtɑːt/

6. Edge Case Review:

Nynorsk generally avoids schwa reduction, so vowels that might be reduced in other dialects are pronounced more fully. The double consonants (mm, kk, nn, ss) are important for maintaining the correct pronunciation and syllable weight.

7. Grammatical Role:

The word is primarily a noun. While it could theoretically be used adjectivally (e.g., "sammenlikningsresultatet er viktig" - "the comparison result is important"), the syllabification and stress remain consistent.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Word: sammenlikningsresultat
• Grammatical Category: Noun (neuter)
• Definitions:
  • "The outcome of a comparison."
  • "Comparison result."

9. Phonological Comparison:

• sammenligning: /sɑmːənˌlɪkːnɪŋ/ - Similar structure, but lacks the "resultat" suffix. Stress remains on the penult.
• resultatliste: /rɛsʊlˌtɑːtˈlɪstə/ - Shares the "resultat" root. Stress shifts to the suffix "liste".
• konkurranseresultat: /kɔnˌkʊrːɑnˌsɛrɛsʊlˌtɑːt/ - Similar length and compound structure. Stress on "re-sul-tat".

The differences in stress placement are due to the varying length and morphological structure of the words. Longer words tend to have multiple stress points, but the primary stress usually falls on the penult in Nynorsk.
