In the case that the stem of the adjective ends with the sound that the normal declined form would prescribe to be used in that context, the sound is either completely omitted (e.g. "(an) empty glass" - "''le glass''" and "the empty glasses" - "''le'''r''' glasserne''") or (an) additional sound(s) are added (e.g. "the white lynx" - "''vit'''it''' ljóduret). | |||
There are also four adjectives that have separate inherent declensions: | |||
