7. Grammatical Role:

The word is a noun in the genitive plural. Syllabification remains consistent regardless of grammatical function, though stress might be slightly altered in spoken language depending on the sentence context.

8. Definition & Semantics:

• Examples: "Resultaten av förtroendemätningarnas analys var överraskande." (The results of the analysis of the confidence measurements were surprising.)

9. Phonological Comparison:

• "försäkringarnas" (of the insurances): fœrˈsɛːkriŋɑːrnas - Similar structure with a prefix and multiple suffixes. Stress on the root syllable.
• "överenskommelsernas" (of the agreements): øˈvɛːrɛnˌskɔmːɛlˈsɛrnas - Again, a complex noun with multiple suffixes. Stress on the root syllable.
• "utvecklingsmöjligheternas" (of the development opportunities): ˈʉtˌvɛkːliŋsˌmœjliˈɡɛːtɛrnas - Demonstrates a longer word with more complex compounding, but still adheres to the stress pattern.

10. Division Rules:

• Onset Maximization: Swedish prefers to include as many consonants as possible in the onset of a syllable.
• Vowel Peak: Each syllable must contain a vowel.
• Sonority Sequencing: Syllable structure generally follows a sonority hierarchy (vowels are most sonorous, followed by semi-vowels, fricatives, nasals, and finally stops).

11. Special Considerations:

The "ö" vowel can have different pronunciations depending on dialect. The "r" sound is often retroflex in Swedish.
