Alternative pronunciation of 部分

部分 is given the primary pronunciation bu4fen5, from character pronunciations bu4 and fen1.

The alternate pronunciation is listed as bu4fen4. I am wondering if this is correct, or if the second tone is in error.

It is correct :slight_smile: 分 is one of the characters that has multiple pronunciations; bu4fen4 is how it’s generally pronounced in Taiwan
