3. Morphemic Analysis:

• Prefix: "двух-" (dvukh-) - meaning "two," from Proto-Slavic *dъva.
• Root: "сот-" (сот-) - meaning "hundred," from Proto-Slavic *soto.
• Root: "пять-" (pyat'-) - meaning "five," from Proto-Slavic *pętь.
• Root: "десять-" (desyat'-) - meaning "ten," from Proto-Slavic *desętь.
• Root: "миллион-" (million-) - meaning "million," borrowed from French (million), ultimately from Latin *mille.

5. Phonetic Transcription:

/dvuxsɐtпʲætʲɪˈdʲesʲɪtʲɪmʲɪlʲɪˈonːəjə/

6. Edge Case Review:

The presence of consonant clusters (e.g., "стп") requires careful consideration. Russian allows for complex clusters, but syllable division aims to break them in a way that maximizes sonority. The "тп" cluster is a relatively common occurrence in Russian morphology.

7. Grammatical Role:

The word is an adjective. Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of its grammatical function within a sentence.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Definition: Two hundred and fifty millionth.
• Grammatical Category: Adjective
• Translation: Two hundred and fifty millionth
• Synonyms: None readily available due to the specificity of the number.
• Antonyms: First, initial.
• Examples: "Двухсотпятидесятимиллионная статья в Википедии" (The two hundred and fifty millionth article on Wikipedia).

9. Phonological Comparison:

• "триста" (trista - three hundred): три-ста /trʲɪˈsta/ - Similar syllable structure with a root and suffix.
• "шестьсот" (shest'sot - six hundred): шест-сот /ʂɛsʲˈsot/ - Similar root structure, but shorter.
• "одиннадцать" (odinadtsat' - eleven): о-дин-на-дцать /ɐˈdʲinːət͡sət/ - Demonstrates a different pattern of compounding and syllable division. The difference lies in the number of roots and the presence of a more complex suffix.

10. Syllable Division Rules:

• Open Syllable Preference: Syllables tend to end in vowels.
• Sonority Hierarchy: Consonants are grouped based on their sonority, with more sonorous consonants (like liquids and nasals) tending to form syllable nuclei.
• Morphological Boundaries: Syllable division often respects morphemic boundaries.
• Consonant Cluster Resolution: Complex consonant clusters are broken down based on sonority and ease of articulation.

11. Special Considerations:

Vowel reduction in unstressed syllables is a significant factor in pronunciation, but does not affect the orthographic syllable division. The "х" sound can sometimes be pronounced as a voiceless glottal fricative [h] in certain positions, but this is a phonetic variation and doesn't alter the syllable structure.

12. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

Regional variations in vowel pronunciation exist, but the core syllable division remains consistent.
