Morphology

Nouns

Nouns may have two stems, and these stems may or may not differ in accent. For these nouns, the primary stem is used in the nominative, vocative, and accusative while the secondary stem is used in the remaining cases. Depending on the noun, the nominative singular may also be irregular.

O-stems and ā-stems almost always have a single stem, while other noun classes are more likely to have multiple stems.

The stems are given in the citation form: nominative singular, (nominative plural), genitive singular

• The nominative plural is used when the nominative singular is irregular.
