3. Morphemic Analysis:

• ut-: Prefix. Origin: Old Norse. Function: Indicates 'out' or 'release'.

5. Phonetic Transcription:

/ʉtˈløːsnɪŋsbeˈløːp/

6. Edge Case Review:

The consonant cluster "sn" is relatively common in Nynorsk and doesn't typically trigger syllable division. The 'ø' vowel is a standard feature of the language and doesn't present a syllabification challenge.

7. Grammatical Role:

The word is primarily a noun. Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of its grammatical function within a sentence.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Definition: The amount of money paid for redemption or discharge of a debt or obligation.
• Grammatical Category: Noun (masculine gender)
• Translation: Redemption amount, discharge amount.

9. Phonological Comparison:

• lønsomhet (profitability): løn-som-het. Similar root "løs-", stress on the first syllable of the root.

The differences in syllable division are primarily due to the varying length and complexity of the compound elements. "utløsningsbeløp" is a longer, more complex compound, leading to more syllables.

10. Division Rules:

• Onset Maximization: Consonant clusters are kept together as onsets whenever possible (e.g., "ut-", "løs-").
• Vowel Peak Principle: Each syllable must contain a vowel (vowel peak).
• Sonority Sequencing Principle: Syllables are structured to maximize sonority (sound intensity) from the periphery towards the nucleus (vowel).

11. Special Considerations:

Nynorsk has a relatively flexible orthography, and some regional variations in pronunciation might influence perceived syllable boundaries. However, the division presented here is based on standard Nynorsk phonological rules.

12. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

Some dialects might slightly reduce the vowel in the unstressed syllables, but this doesn't significantly alter the syllable division.
