Template:ga-decl-f5/documentation

Usage

This template is for Irish feminine nouns of the fifth declension.

{{ga-decl-f5|1|2|3|4|genpl=|dat=|datoc=}}

The four positional parameters are obligatory; the named parameters are optional.

• Parameter 1 is the initial letter of the word (case-sensitive); if the first letter is s, then the first two letters of the word should be listed here.
• Parameter 2 is the nominative singular form of the noun, omitting the initial letter(s)
• Parameter 3 is the genitive singular form of the noun, omitting the initial letter(s)
• Parameter 4 is the plural of the noun, omitting the initial letter(s)
• genpl= is the genitive plural of the noun, omitting the initial letter(s), if this is different from parameter 4 (i.e. in the case of a weak plural)
• dat= should be followed by the complete dative singular form, omitting the initial letter(s) (if the noun has a distinct dative singular), or be omitted (if the noun has a dative singular identical in form to the nominative singular)
• datoc= marks the circumstances under which the distinctive dative form occurs; it must be set to one of the following:
  • a if it occurs only in archaic and dialectal texts and not in the standard language at all
  • p if it occurs in the standard language only in certain phrases
  • s if it occurs in the standard language under all or almost all circumstances
