Hyphenation ofпротивопоставившемся

Linguistic Analysis of "противопоставившемся" (Russian)

1. Examination & Pronunciation:

The word "противопоставившемся" is a complex verbal adjective (past active participle) derived from the verb "противопоставить" (to oppose, to contrast). Its pronunciation involves a series of consonant clusters and vowel reductions typical of Russian.

2. Syllable Division:

Following Russian syllabification rules, which prioritize the open syllable principle (attempting to create CV syllables), and considering sonority hierarchies, the word is divided as follows (see "syllable_division" in the JSON output).

3. Morphemic Analysis:

• Prefix: про- (pro-) - Slavic origin, indicates direction "against", "counter".
• Root: -став- (-stav-) - Slavic origin, related to "ставить" (to put, to place, to set).
• Suffixes: -ив- (-iv-) - forms the active participle; -ш- (-sh-) - past tense marker; -ем- (-em-) - past tense marker; -ся (-sya) - reflexive/passive marker.

4. Stress Identification:

The primary stress falls on the fifth syllable: про-ти-во-по-ста́-вив-шем-ся.

5. Phonetic Transcription:

/prətʲɪvəpəˈstaviʂəmsʲæ/

6. Edge Case Review:

Russian syllabification can be complex due to 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:

The word is a past active participle, functioning as an adjective. Syllabification remains consistent regardless of its grammatical function within a sentence.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Definition: Having opposed, having contrasted, having set against.
• Translation: Having opposed/contrasted.
• Grammatical Category: Past Active Participle (Adjective)
• Synonyms: противоположенный (proti-vo-po-lo-zhen-nyy) - opposite, contrasting.
• Antonyms: совпадающий (so-vpa-day-ush-chiy) - coinciding, matching.
• Examples:
  • "Противопоставившемся аргументу не было ответа." (The opposing argument had no answer.)

9. Phonological Comparison:

• противоположный (pro-ti-vo-po-lozh-nyy): Similar prefix and root structure. Syllabification follows the same principles.
• поставивший (po-sta-viv-shiy): Shares the root "-став-" and similar suffixation. Syllabification is comparable.
• противодействовать (pro-ti-vo-dey-stvo-vat'): Similar prefix and a complex verb structure. Syllabification demonstrates the same open syllable preference.

10. Syllable Analysis & Rules:

The following table details the syllable analysis, IPA transcription, and rule application for each syllable:

11. Division Rules:

• Maximizing Open Syllables: The primary rule, aiming for CV or CVC structures.
• Consonant Cluster Resolution: Breaking up consonant clusters to create permissible syllable structures.
• Palatalization: Consonants before 'е', 'ё', 'и', 'ю', 'я' become palatalized, influencing pronunciation but not orthographic syllabification.

12. Special Considerations:

The word's length and complex morphology present a challenge. The reflexive suffix "-ся" often forms a separate syllable. Vowel reduction (akan'ye/ikan'ye) is significant in pronunciation but doesn't affect the written syllable division.

13. Alternative Pronunciations/Regional Variations:

While the standard pronunciation is as transcribed, regional variations in vowel reduction might occur. However, these variations do not alter the syllable division.
