* ''Theyn'' is a weak verb due it to have a short diphthong, thus the first vowel of the diphthong is lengthened. This happens for all nouns with short diphthongs. | |||
*The very slight difference here between the Dat. and Part. forms of ''Theyn'' are due to ''Theyn'' itself. I.E ''Theyn'' dropping its ''n'' in the Dat. form - this is irregular and only occurs only with Class 1 Weak Nouns ending in ''n'' | |||

* | * In Class V the ''Strong'' class are the Mass nouns and the ''Weak'' are the Inanimate Nouns. (Almost)Any noun can take Mass Noun (Strong) CLass V inflections and be used as a ''Collective'' Noun, however, the original Mass Nouns cannot take any other inflections or be used in any other paradigms. | ||
