@JohnC5, Rua, Metaknowledge (please tell me if I'm bothering you by pinging too much) I don't think we should use the term "common" and simply equate it with "mf". A word like iuvenis will be accompanied by a feminine form of an adjective if the referent is feminine, by a masculine form if the referent is masculine; I don't think this is the same behaviour as that of the common gender in Germanic languages. --Per utramque cavernam (talk) 17:08, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
- I concur. It's not particularly misleading, but it's not an optimal analysis. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 17:15, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
- Some serious infrastructure change would be necessary. —*i̯óh₁nC[5] 22:04, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
