1. Pronunciation Considerations:

The word "utgiftsfordeling" presents a moderate challenge due to its length and consonant clusters.

Vowel qualities are crucial, and the presence of 'g' and 'd' requires careful attention to their realization.

2. Syllable Division:

3. Morphemic Analysis:

• ut-: Prefix. Origin: Old Norse. Function: Indicates 'out' or 'away', often implying distribution or expenditure.
