The first declension consists primarily of masculine nouns. Nouns ending in a consonant may contain an epenthetic ''y'' to break up forbidden consonant clusters, particularly those ending in resonants. The ''ħ''- and ''q''- stem nouns always end in ''-ā'', and this mutates to ''-aħ-''/''-aq'' before a ending beginning with a vowel, and exhibits the form ''-aC-'' before an ending beginning with any consonant. (Some nouns ending in ''-ng'' are underlyingly (and alternate with) ''nħ-'' or ''nq-'' stems.) The ''h''-stems have a long vowel ending by default, which shortens in front of a consonant ending, along with gemination of any fricative-onset endings. The ı-stem nouns, ending in ''-i'', display the ''-i'' before a possessive suffix beginning with a consonant, and a ''-ı'' before one beginning with a vowel. Geminate stems end in a long vowel plus a final consonant in their base forms, which changes to a short vowel + geminate.
