Talk:сѫдьи

Two paper dictionaries I looked up (Mali staroslavensko-hrvatski rječnik, Старославянский словарь (по рукописям X-XI веков)) and also Derksen's Slavic inherited lexicon (here entry for sǫdii) lemmatize tense jers with final '-ii'.

I also added a few nouns recently in that form (рабꙑни, балии, вѣтии etc.).

Therefore, I propose moving this page to сѫдии. Alternate spellings for vocalized weak/tense jers would, of course, be covered in the declension table.

This should probalby end up in Wiktionary:About Old Church Slavonic or something like this.. --Ivan Štambuk 17:04, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

I have always considered the spellings сѫдьи to be primary, and сѫдии a variant. I think a good way to handle this is to separate the two spellings and have two complete pages, one with сѫдьи and the other with сѫдии, and each page mentioning the other as an ===Alternative spelling===. —Stephen 20:30, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

I agree. Both of them are basically equal, but paper dictionaries must give some precedence to some "conventional" form due to limitations of paper media. When I add all the nouns with multiple lemma forms I'll generate appropriate duplicate pages. --Ivan Štambuk 20:38, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
