1. Pronunciation Considerations:

The word "utstyrsanskaffing" is a compound noun in Nynorsk. Its pronunciation involves several consonant clusters, which are common in Germanic languages. The 'r' is typically alveolar, and vowel qualities are relatively consistent with standard Nynorsk pronunciation.

2. Syllable Division:

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

3. Morphemic Analysis:

• ut-: Prefix. Origin: Old Norse. Function: Indicates 'out' or 'away', often intensifying the action.
