9. Phonological Comparison:

10. Syllable Division Rules:

• Rule 1: Syllables are formed around vowels. Each vowel generally forms a syllable.
• Rule 2: Consonant clusters are broken according to sonority hierarchy (more sonorous sounds tend to form the nucleus of a syllable).
• Rule 3: Stress typically falls on the penultimate syllable in Romanian words.

11. Special Considerations:

The "in-" prefix is always a separate syllable. The consonant cluster "fr" is treated as a single onset for the first syllable. The "ți" sequence represents a palatalized consonant and vowel, forming a single syllable unit.

12. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

While standard Romanian pronunciation is relatively consistent, some regional variations might exist in vowel quality or the degree of palatalization. These variations would not significantly alter the syllable division.
