In the context of vowel harmony in Swedish, which of the following statements best characterizes the "fronting" rule as applied to back vowels in certain suffixes?
Front vowels (e, i, y) in suffixes are always fronted to a higher or more fronted variant regardless of the root vowel.
Vowel harmony primarily affects the *initial* vowel of a root word, dictating the quality of subsequent vowels in suffixes.
Back vowels (a, o, u) in suffixes are fronted to their corresponding front vowel counterparts (ä, ö, y) to match the front vowel of the root word.
Back vowels in suffixes must harmonize with the *last* vowel of the root word, fronting only if that last vowel is a front vowel.
Q2Domain Verified
Consider the word "solen" (the sun). If this word were to undergo a hypothetical "fronting" rule to create a possessive form analogous to how some fronting occurs in other contexts, which form would be phonetically most consistent with the principles of Swedish vowel harmony?
"sälen"
"solen's"
"sölen"
"sylen"

Pitch accent in Swedish is crucial for distinguishing meaning. For a minimal pair like "anden" (the duck) and "anden" (the spirit), what is the most likely difference in pitch accent realization at the specialist level?
"anden" (duck) has a rising accent on the second syllable, while "anden" (spirit) has a falling accent on the second syllable.
"anden" (duck) has a falling accent (Accent 1) on the first syllable, while "anden" (spirit) has a rising accent (Accent 2) on the first syllable.
"anden" (duck) has a rising accent on the first syllable, while "anden" (spirit) has a falling accent on the first syllable.
There is no discernible difference in pitch accent between these two homographs; context is the sole disambiguator.
