I cannot find any evidence that inflected forms of "Deut" are used, other than accusative singular (as in the idioms, in which "Deut" is used). --Bruno413 (talk) 07:52, 17 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Deut states "Deut m (accusative only)", and Deuts was created by a bot. "Deuts" exists, but seems to be a currency, and might be in plural. So ATM the entry should be deleted until someone adds the currency. -84.161.16.196 01:58, 16 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
Deut now has a second sense (a Dutch coin, doit), and this has Deuts as a plural. The genitive could be *Deut or *Deuts. I only found the genitive Deuts once in "nicht um den Werth eines Deuts", and it seems to have a figurative sense "a bit, a little".
As Deut and plural Deuts are attested, and as genitive Deuts would be RFV-failed by now, I changed the entry from genitive singular to inflected form. -84.161.13.81 15:51, 16 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
It seems fine. I merged the two noun sections into one, since the senses have the same etymology and gender, and marked the "coin" sense historical. RFV resolved.__Gamren (talk) 10:53, 11 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
