===''ī''-stem nouns ===
The "ī"-stem nouns are feminine. An example of this class is ''martī'' “married woman”. The "ī"-class consist of primarily deadjectival nouns of state or condition, as well as some old feminine noun forms, such as the example noun, as well as the Slavic borrowing ''pānī'' (from Polish ''pani'' “Mrs”). The last root consonant is palatalised in oblique cases, unless the consonant is labial or glottal.

===''ū''-stem nouns===
The "ū"-stem nouns are feminine. An example of this class is ''burū'' “eyebrow”. The class consist of mostly abstract nouns, derived from adjectives or verbal nouns, as well as old inanimate nouns, such as ''lakū'' “lake”. Most of these nouns became ''is''-stem in modern Carpathian (Western Carpathian ''lokwis'' “pond”).
