Hyphenation ofнезаинтересованность

Linguistic Analysis of "незаинтересованность" (Russian)

1. Examination & Pronunciation:

The word "незаинтересованность" (nezainteresovannost') is a noun meaning "disinterest" or "lack of interest." It's a relatively long word formed through extensive prefixation and suffixation. Pronunciation involves a complex interplay of vowel reduction and consonant assimilation, typical of Russian.

2. Syllable Division:

Following Russian syllabification rules, which prioritize the open syllable principle (preferring syllables ending in vowels), the word is divided as follows (see "syllable_division" in the JSON output).

3. Morphemic Analysis:

• Prefix: не- (ne-) - Native Slavic. Negation.
• Root: интерес- (interes-) - Borrowed from French "intérêt" (ultimately from Latin "interesse" - to be of interest). Meaning "interest."
• Suffixes: -ова- (-ova-) - Native Slavic. Forms adjectives from verbs or nouns. -нн- (-nn-) - Native Slavic. Denotes a passive participle or adjective. -ость (-ost') - Native Slavic. Forms abstract nouns.

4. Stress Identification:

The primary stress falls on the third syllable: не-за-ин-те-ре-со-ван-ность.

5. Phonetic Transcription:

/nʲɪzɐɪntʲɪrʲɪˈsovənːəstʲ/

6. Edge Case Review:

Russian syllabification can be tricky with consonant clusters. The rule of "sonority peak" applies, where syllables tend to build towards a sonority peak (vowel) and then decrease. The double 'нн' poses a slight challenge, but is generally treated as a single consonant cluster within the syllable.

7. Grammatical Role:

The word is primarily a noun. While it's derived from a verb root, it doesn't readily function as a verb itself. Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of its grammatical function as a noun.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Definition: Lack of interest, disinterest, apathy.
• Grammatical Category: Noun (feminine)
• Translation: Disinterest
• Synonyms: безразличие (bezrazlichiye - indifference), апатия (apatiya - apathy)
• Antonyms: интерес (interes - interest), энтузиазм (entuziazm - enthusiasm)
• Examples:
  • "Он проявил незаинтересованность к предложению." (On proyavil nezainteresovannost' k predlozheniyu.) - He showed disinterest in the proposal.
  • "Её незаинтересованность была очевидна." (Yeyo nezainteresovannost' byla очевидна.) - Her disinterest was obvious.

9. Phonological Comparison:

• интересный (interesnyy - interesting): ин-те-рес-ный (in-te-res-nyy) - Similar root, stress on the third syllable.
• заинтересованный (zainteresovannyy - interested): за-ин-те-ре-со-ван-ный (za-in-te-re-so-van-nyy) - Similar structure, stress on the third syllable.
• безынтересный (bezyinteresnyy - uninteresting): бе-зын-те-рес-ный (be-zy-n-te-res-nyy) - Similar syllable structure, stress on the third syllable.

The consistent stress pattern and syllable division in these words demonstrate the regularity of Russian stress and syllabification rules. The presence of prefixes and suffixes doesn't fundamentally alter the core syllable structure derived from the root.

10. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

While the standard pronunciation is as transcribed, some regional variations might exhibit slight vowel reduction differences, but these wouldn't significantly alter the syllable division.

11. Division Rules Applied:

• Open Syllable Principle: Syllables generally end in vowels.
• Sonority Peak: Syllables build towards a sonority peak (vowel).
• Consonant Cluster Resolution: Consonant clusters are broken up based on phonotactic constraints, but often remain within a single syllable if they are permissible.
• Vowel Quality: Vowel reduction occurs in unstressed syllables.
