по-кро-ви-тель-ству-е-мо-го

3. Morphemic Analysis:

• Prefix: по- (prefix indicating the beginning of an action or direction, derived from Proto-Slavic *po-)
• Root: -кровить- (root related to "cover," "protect," from Proto-Slavic *krovь)

5. Phonetic Transcription:

/pəkrɐvʲɪˈtʲelʲstvʊˈjɛmɐɡə/

6. Edge Case Review:

Russian syllabification generally follows the principle of maximizing onsets. Consonant clusters are usually broken up to create syllables with a consonant-vowel structure. Vowel reduction in unstressed syllables is a significant factor in pronunciation, but doesn't affect the written syllable division.

7. Grammatical Role:

The word is a short-form masculine singular adjective. The syllabification remains consistent regardless of its function within a sentence.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Definition: Protected, patronized, under the patronage of.
• Grammatical Category: Adjective (short-form)
• Translation: Protected, patronized
• Synonyms: защищённый (zashchishchyonnyy - protected), опекаемый (opekaemyy - under guardianship)
• Antonyms: незащищённый (nezashchishchyonnyy - unprotected)
• Examples:
  • "Покровительствуемого артиста поддерживали поклонники." (The patronized artist was supported by fans.)
  • "Он был покровительствуемого влиятельным человеком." (He was patronized by an influential person.)

9. Phonological Comparison:

• покровительство (pokrovitel'stvo - patronage): по-кро-ви-тель-ство. Similar structure, stress on the same syllable.
• покровитель (pokrovitel' - patron): по-кро-ви-тель. Similar structure, stress on the same syllable.
• покровие (pokrovie - protection): по-кро-ви-е. Shorter, but shares the "по-кро-ви-" sequence, with stress on the third syllable.

The differences in syllable count are due to the varying lengths of the suffixes. The core syllable structure "по-кро-ви-" remains consistent.

10. Division Rules:

• Rule 1: Vowel-Consonant Division: Syllables are typically divided after vowels (e.g., по-кро).
• Rule 2: Consonant Cluster Division: Consonant clusters are broken up to create syllables with a consonant-vowel structure (e.g., ви-тель).
• Rule 3: Maximizing Onsets: Syllables prefer to start with a consonant when possible.
• Rule 4: Morphological Boundaries: Syllable division often respects morphemic boundaries.

11. Special Considerations:

The vowel reduction in unstressed syllables (e.g., 'o' becoming 'a') doesn't affect the written syllable division. The palatalization of consonants before 'е' (e.g., 'тель' pronounced with a soft 'l') is a phonetic feature, not a syllabic one.

12. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

While the standard pronunciation and syllabification are as described above, some regional variations in vowel reduction might exist, but these won't alter the syllable division.
