5. Phonetic Transcription:

/dʲɪskrʲɪmʲɪnʲɪˈrovəvʂɨj‿sʲæ/

6. Edge Case Review:

Russian syllabification generally follows the sonority hierarchy, but vowel reduction in unstressed syllables can complicate things. The 'о' in 'ро' is reduced to 'а' in unstressed position. The soft signs (ь) affect the preceding consonant, palatalizing it.

7. Grammatical Role:

The word functions as an adjective, specifically a past active participle. Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of its use in a sentence.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Definition: Having discriminated, being in the state of having discriminated.
• Translation: Discriminated (masculine singular, past active participle).
• Grammatical Category: Adjective (past active participle)
• Synonyms: Предвзятый (predvzyatyj - biased), несправедливый (nespravědlivyj - unjust).
• Antonyms: Беспристрастный (bespristrastnyj - impartial), справедливый (spravědlivyj - just).
• Examples:
  • "Он чувствовал себя дискриминировавшимся." (On chuvstvoval sebya diskriminírovas’hyмся.) - "He felt discriminated against."
  • "Дискриминировавшийся сотрудник подал жалобу." (Diskriminírovas’hyйся sotrudnik podal zhalobu.) - "The discriminated employee filed a complaint."

9. Phonological Comparison:

• информированный (informírovannyj): ин-фор-ми-ро-ван-ный. Similar syllable structure with vowel reduction. Stress on the fourth syllable.
• организовавшийся (organizóvas’hyйся): ор-га-ни-зо-вав-ший-ся. Similar structure, stress on the fifth syllable.
• демократизированный (demokratizírovannyj): де-мо-кра-ти-зи-ро-ван-ный. Longer word, but shares the -рован- suffix and vowel reduction patterns. Stress on the fifth syllable.

The differences in syllable division are primarily due to the varying consonant clusters and vowel sequences within each word. However, the underlying principles of Russian syllabification (sonority, vowel reduction) remain consistent.

10. Division Rules:

• Rule 1: Sonority Principle: Syllables are formed around a vowel nucleus, with consonants gravitating towards the nearest vowel.
• Rule 2: Consonant Clusters: Consonant clusters are generally split according to the sonority hierarchy, with more sonorous consonants forming the onset of the following syllable.
• Rule 3: Vowel Reduction: Unstressed vowels are reduced, affecting pronunciation but not syllabification (syllabification is based on the written form).
• Rule 4: Soft Sign (ь): The soft sign doesn't form a syllable on its own; it modifies the preceding consonant.

11. Special Considerations:

The word's length and the presence of multiple suffixes make it a complex case. The reflexive particle "-ся" always forms a separate syllable. Vowel reduction is a key factor in pronunciation, but the syllabification is based on the written form.

12. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

While the standard pronunciation is as transcribed, some regional variations might exhibit slight differences in vowel reduction or palatalization. However, these variations generally don't affect the core syllable division.
