Hyphenation ofультрамикроскопическая

Linguistic Analysis of "ультрамикроскопическая" (ultramikroskopicheskaya)

1. Examination & Pronunciation:

The word "ультрамикроскопическая" is a highly complex adjective meaning "ultramicroscopic." It's a relatively recent borrowing and adaptation into Russian, exhibiting characteristics of both native and borrowed morphology. Pronunciation involves a series of consonant clusters and vowel reductions typical of Russian.

2. Syllable Division:

Following Russian syllabification rules, which prioritize the sonority hierarchy and avoidance of syllable-initial consonant clusters (with exceptions), the word breaks down as follows (see "syllable_division" in the JSON output).

3. Morphemic Analysis:

• Prefix: ультра- (ultra-) - From Latin ultra meaning "beyond, extremely." Functions as an intensifying prefix.
• Root: микро- (micro-) - From Greek mikros meaning "small." Forms the core meaning related to size.
• Suffix: -скопическая (-skopicheskaya) - A complex suffix derived from Greek skopeō ("to view, examine") and the adjectival suffix -ический (-icheskiy). Indicates a quality related to viewing or examination at a microscopic level.

4. Stress Identification:

The primary stress falls on the penultimate syllable: ультрамикроскопи́ческая.

5. Phonetic Transcription:

/ʊlʲtrɐmʲɪkrɐskɐˈpʲit͡ɕɪskəjə/

6. Edge Case Review:

The word presents challenges due to the long sequence of consonants and the presence of both palatalized and non-palatalized consonants. The syllable division aims to minimize consonant clusters, but some are unavoidable.

7. Grammatical Role:

The word is primarily an adjective. Syllabification and stress remain consistent regardless of its grammatical function within a sentence.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Definition: Relating to objects or phenomena that cannot be seen with a conventional microscope; extremely small.
• Grammatical Category: Adjective (прилагательное)
• Translation: Ultramicroscopic
• Synonyms: сверхмалый (sverkhmalyy - extremely small), невидимый в микроскоп (nevidimyy v mikroskop - invisible under a microscope)
• Antonyms: макроскопический (makroskopicheskiy - macroscopic)
• Examples:
  • "Ультрамикроскопическая частица." (Ultramikroskopicheskaya chastitsa - An ultramicroscopic particle.)
  • "Исследование ультрамикроскопических структур." (Issledovaniye ultramikroskopicheskikh struktur - Research of ultramicroscopic structures.)

9. Phonological Comparison:

• макроскопический (makroskopicheskiy): ма-кро-ско-пи́-че-ский (ma-kro-sko-pi-che-skiy) - Similar structure with a different prefix. Syllable division follows the same principles.
• микробиологический (mikrobiologicheskiy): ми-кро-би-о-ло-ги́-че-ский (mi-kro-bi-o-lo-gi-che-skiy) - Shares the "micro-" root and the "-icheskiy" suffix. Syllable division is consistent.
• телескопический (teleskopicheskiy): те-ле-ско-пи́-че-ский (te-le-sko-pi-che-skiy) - Similar suffix structure. Syllable division follows the same rules, though the initial consonant cluster is simpler.

10. Division Rules:

• Sonority Principle: Syllables tend to be formed around vowel nuclei, with consonants grouped around them based on sonority.
• Avoidance of Initial Consonant Clusters: Russian generally avoids syllables beginning with consonant clusters, though this rule is sometimes broken, especially with borrowed words.
• Palatalization: Palatalized consonants tend to be syllable-initial.

11. Special Considerations:

The word's length and complex morphology make it an exceptional case. The syllable division is based on a balance between theoretical rules and actual pronunciation patterns. Regional variations in pronunciation might lead to slight differences in syllable division, but the core structure remains consistent.
