/zɐkənɐdɐˈtʲelʲst̪vəvɐvʂɨm/

6. Edge Case Review:

Russian syllabification can be tricky with consonant clusters. The rule of maximizing open syllables is key here. Vowel reduction (akan'ye and ikan'ye) also plays a role in pronunciation, but doesn't affect the orthographic syllable division.

7. Grammatical Role:

9. Phonological Comparison:

• законодатель (zakonodatel') - "legislator" - за-ко-но-да́-тель (za-ko-no-da-tel'). Syllable division is similar, demonstrating the consistent application of rules to the root "конода" (konoda).
• законодательство (zakonodatel'stvo) - "legislation" - за-ко-но-да́-тель-ство (za-ko-no-da-tel'-stvo). The addition of "-тельство" follows the pattern of adding a suffix to an existing syllable.

10. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

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

11. Division Rules:

• Rule 1: Open Syllable Preference: Russian favors open syllables (ending in a vowel). This rule is applied throughout the word, creating syllables like "ва" (va) and "шим" (shim).
• Rule 2: Consonant Cluster Resolution: When consonant clusters occur, they are often broken to create permissible syllable structures. However, certain consonant clusters are maintained (e.g., "ст" in "тельство").
• Rule 3: Vowel-Consonant Division: Syllables are typically divided between vowels and consonants, with the consonant usually joining the following vowel.
