3. Morphemic Analysis:

• Prefix: inter- (Latin origin) - meaning "between," "among," or "reciprocal."

5. Phonetic Transcription:

/ˌinterko.o.pe.raˈtist/

6. Edge Case Review:

The sequence "coop" presents a potential edge case. Romanian generally prefers to keep consonant clusters within a syllable if they are pronounceable. The "coop" cluster is acceptable and remains together.

7. Grammatical Role:

"Intercooperatist" functions primarily as a noun, denoting a person who engages in international cooperation. Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of grammatical context.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Definition: A person who promotes or engages in international cooperation.
• Translation: International cooperationist.
• Grammatical Category: Noun
• Synonyms: Colaborator internațional (international collaborator), promotor al cooperării internaționale (promoter of international cooperation).
• Antonyms: Izolaționist (isolationist), naționalist extremist (extreme nationalist).
• Examples: "Un intercooperatist convins, el a dedicat viața promovării păcii." (A convinced international cooperationist, he dedicated his life to promoting peace.)

9. Phonological Comparison:

• cooperativă (cooperative): co-o-pe-ra-ti-vă. Similar syllable structure, stress on the penultimate syllable.
• internațional (international): in-ter-na-ți-o-nal. Stress on the antepenultimate syllable, but shares the "inter-" prefix and similar vowel patterns.
• artist (artist): a-rist. A shorter word, but demonstrates the "-ist" suffix and its syllabification.

10. Syllable Division Rules Applied:

• Vowel-centric Syllabification: Romanian syllables are generally built around vowel sounds. Each vowel (or vowel digraph) forms the nucleus of a syllable.
• Consonant Cluster Rule: Consonant clusters are kept together within a syllable if they are pronounceable.
• Penultimate Stress Rule: In many Romanian words, the stress falls on the penultimate syllable.

11. Special Considerations:

The word's length and complex morphology require careful application of the rules. The "inter-" prefix is common and doesn't pose a specific challenge. The "coop" cluster is a relatively common sequence in borrowed words.
