====Liquid/nasal-stems==== | |||
These nouns have stems ending in a liquid (''r'' or ''l'') or a nasal (''n'' or ''m''). | |||
In some cases, the stem-final consonant may vary betwen primary and secondary stems - the most common example is an alternation between ''r'' and ''n'' in neuter nouns. | |||
The following shorthand symbols are used: | |||
*C: represents the stem-final consonant (may be ''r, l, n'', or ''m''). | |||
*S: represents the above consonant's "syllabic" counterpart. These are as follows: | |||
{| class=wikitable style="text-align:center" | |||
! Consonant !! Syllabic counterpart | |||
|- | |||
| r || ər | |||
|- | |||
| l || əl | |||
|- | |||
| n || ə̃ | |||
|- | |||
| m || ũ | |||
|} | |||
*V: represents the vowel preceding the stem-final consonant (may be ''e'' or ''o''). | |||
*L: represents the above vowel's lengthened counterpart (i.e. ''ē'' or ''ō''). | |||
