====n.st.m.za==== | |||
The fourth sub-class ('''n.st.m.za''') is very similar to the third, but applies to those roots ending in ‹s› which alternate to ‹ž› when followed by a vowel. From early Gothic times, this ‹s› ending merged with the nominative singular ending. This paradigm is really an overlap between the previous and the following sub-classes. | |||

====n.st.m.ra, n.st.m.sa, n.st.m.sta==== | |||
The fifth sub-class ('''n.st.m.ra, n.st.m.sa, n.st.m.sta''') has no consonant alternation, but is comprised of those roots ending in ‹r›. In Gothic times, this applied only to nouns with a short vowel, but this later expanded to include all roots in ‹r›. This class is also for those roots ending in ‹s› which do not have s~ž alternation. Due to a later consonant clustering rule, this also applies to nouns in ‹ft›, ‹sp›, ‹st›, and ‹š›. The paradigm is regular, but the nominative singular ‹s› ending is elided. | |||
