Template:eu-decl-inanim/documentation

This template contains the necessary meta-data to allow users who are using accelerated editing to create any grammatical forms semi-automatically.

This template can generate declension tables for Basque animate nouns. It works fully automatically, unlike previous templates. However, there are a few cases in which some parameters must be entered manually, they are detailed bellow.

Parameters

• |dip=

  If the word is monosyllabic and ends in a diphthong, add this parameter with any value.

• |gau=

  If the word is gau (“night”) (or a compound with gau as its last element), add this parameter with any value; instead of the previous one.

• |tap=

  Some words ending in -r have an underlying final flap /-ɾ/. If the word has an underlying final flap, add this parameter with any value. A list of such words can be found here.

• |s=

  Some words, such as names of chemical elements and languages, don't have plural forms. In these cases, add this parameter with any value.

Acronyms

The suffixes attached to acronyms should be separeted by a hyphen. Use the parameter |hyph= with any value to add a hyphen. Since the spelling of an acronym might not indicate correctly whether the last sound is a vowel or a consonant, this has to be specified manually using |ending=V for vowels.
