7. Edge Case Review:

Russian syllabification generally avoids leaving a consonant at the end of a syllable unless it's a sonorant (l, m, n, r). This word adheres to that rule. Vowel reduction (e.g., 'o' becoming 'a' in unstressed syllables) is a common feature and doesn't affect syllable division itself.

8. Grammatical Role:

The word functions as an adjective (past active participle) modifying a noun in the genitive plural. Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of its grammatical role within a sentence.

9. Definition & Semantics:

• Word: благоприятствовавших
• Part of Speech: Adjective (past active participle)
• Definitions:
  • "Having favored"
  • "Having been conducive to"
  • "Translation": "Having favored/supported/been favorable to"

• Antonyms: препятствовавших (prepyatstvovavshikh - having hindered)
• Examples:

10. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

While the standard pronunciation is as transcribed, some regional variations might exhibit slight differences in vowel quality or consonant palatalization. These variations wouldn't fundamentally alter the syllable division.

11. Phonological Comparison:

• благодарить (blagodarit’ - to thank): blə-ɡə-da-rʲɪt’ - Similar prefix "благо-", similar syllable structure.
• привлекательный (privlekatel’nyy - attractive): prʲɪ-vlʲɪ-ka-tʲelʲ-nɨj - Similar root "при-", similar syllable structure.
• содействовать (sodeystvovat’ - to assist): sə-dʲej-stvə-vət’ - Similar suffixal structure "-ствова-", similar syllable structure.

The syllable division in all these words follows the same principles: vowel nuclei forming syllable cores, consonant clusters broken before vowels, and adherence to the rule of avoiding single consonants at syllable ends (except sonorants).
