Hyphenation ofelectromiograme

Romanian Word Analysis: electromiograme

1. Examination & Pronunciation:

The word "electromiograme" is a noun in Romanian, meaning "electromyograms". It's a relatively complex word, built from several morphemes. Pronunciation follows Romanian phonological rules, with attention to vowel quality and consonant clusters.

2. Syllable Division:

Following Romanian syllabification rules, which prioritize vowel placement and consonant cluster resolution, the word is divided as follows (see JSON output for the orthographic representation).

3. Morphemic Analysis:

• Prefix: electro- (Greek origin, meaning "electricity") - functions as a combining form.
• Root: mio- (Greek origin, meaning "muscle") - functions as a combining form.
• Root: gram- (Greek origin, meaning "writing, record") - functions as a combining form.
• Suffix: -e (Romanian nominalizer, forming nouns from verbs or other nouns) - grammatical function: nominalization.
• Suffix: -le (Romanian definite article attached to nouns) - grammatical function: definite article.

4. Stress Identification:

The primary stress falls on the penultimate syllable: mio-gra-me.

5. Phonetic Transcription:

/e.lek.tro.mi.oˈɡra.me/

6. Edge Case Review:

Romanian allows for relatively free vowel combinations, but consonant clusters are often broken up by epenthetic vowels in rapid speech, though this doesn't affect the written syllable division. The 'g' before 'r' is a potential point of variation, but remains a standard pronunciation.

7. Grammatical Role:

"Electromiograme" is primarily a noun. Its syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of its grammatical function within a sentence.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Definition: Electromyograms; recordings of electrical activity produced by skeletal muscles.
• Part of Speech: Noun
• Translation: Electromyograms
• Synonyms: (None readily available in Romanian without being overly technical)
• Antonyms: (Not applicable - it's a technical term)
• Examples:
  • "Medicii au analizat electromiogramele pentru a diagnostica boala musculară." (The doctors analyzed the electromyograms to diagnose the muscular disease.)

9. Phonological Comparison:

• program: /proˈɡram/ - Syllable division: pro-gram. Similar structure with a consonant cluster at the end, but simpler morphemic composition.
• telemecanisme: /te.le.me.kaˈni.sme/ - Syllable division: te-le-me-ca-nis-me. Similar complexity with multiple morphemes and a stress on the penultimate syllable.
• biografie: /bi.oˈɡra.fi.e/ - Syllable division: bi-o-gra-fi-e. Shares the 'gram' root, but has a different prefix and suffix, resulting in a different stress pattern.

10. Syllable Division Rules Applied:

• Rule 1: Vowel-Centric Syllabification: Romanian syllables are generally built around vowels. Each vowel typically forms the nucleus of a syllable.
• Rule 2: Consonant Cluster Resolution: Consonant clusters are broken up according to sonority, with more sonorous sounds tending to form syllable onsets.
• Rule 3: Penultimate Stress: In many Romanian words, the stress falls on the penultimate syllable (second to last).
• Rule 4: Morpheme Boundaries: Syllable division often respects morpheme boundaries, but this is not a strict rule.

11. Special Considerations:

The word's length and complex morphology require careful application of the syllable division rules. The presence of the definite article "-le" attached to the noun is a common feature of Romanian and doesn't significantly alter the syllabification process.
