Nouns ending in a consonant in their base form, except for nouns ending in the semiconsonant -j, usually add a euphonic vowel before the endings of the other cases. This vowel is generally -i-, but other vowels are also possible.
Nouns ending in a consonant in their base form usually add a euphonic vowel before the endings of the other cases. This vowel is generally -u-, but other vowels are also possible. These added vowels undergo the normal pluralization process.
<small>dir.</small> heǵ → <small>obl.</small> heǵire, ...
 
Some irregular nouns, however, change their last vowel in the root before adding other endings. The commonest change is o → u. A lot of these nouns display both irregular and regular forms, especially in earlier texts. In modern texts the amount of irregular forms is extremely limited, with a strong tendency towards regularization by analogy.
<small>dir.</small> heňo → <small>obl.</small> heňure, ...
 
A small amount of nouns, conversely, display unpredictable irregularities, both vocalic and consonantal, in the noun root.
<small>dir.</small> beĺ → <small>obl.</small> bejre, ...

Noun declension

Nouns are declined in case by adding the following endings to the base form of the noun:

direct
-
genitive
-rɛ
dative
-xjɛ

Nouns are also declined for number, with different models:

  • The base form for the dual number is built by adding the ending -hiw:
suvɛ → suvɛhiw
dogtwo dogs
  • Per costruire la forma base del plurale si modifica la vocale finale del nome. Le modifiche delle vocali in generale sono:

u → ū ū → ū ä → äw o → ū ō → ū ö → ő i → ü ī → ü ő → őw ɛ → ö ā → āw ü → ü a → o iw → ü

In particolare, come si può notare, i nomi terminanti in -ū e -ü non possiedono una forma di plurale distinta Le desinenze di caso vengono unite a queste forme base.


Some examples are shown below: vɛvju, father, and hő, woman.

Nouns ending in a consonant in their base form usually add a euphonic vowel before the endings of the other cases. This vowel is generally -u-, but other vowels are also possible. These added vowels undergo the normal pluralization process.
