Nouns may be one of three genders: masculine, feminine, or neuter. | |||
====Cases==== | |||
Nouns are declined for three cases: | |||
*'''Nominative''' | |||
*'''Genitive''' | |||
*'''Oblique''' | |||
The cases are used similarly as they are in Ancient Greek, with oblique covering the roles of accusative and dative. Most prepositions take an oblique object. | |||
====First declension==== | |||
First declension nouns may be any gender, but they are most often feminine. Neuter first declension nouns are rare. | |||
The endings are as follows: | |||
