tpw-noun (?)


This template generates a headword line, categorizes Old Tupi noun entries and shows if it is possessible, its class and its inflections.

Usage

Should be used in all Old Tupi Noun entries, right under the Noun L3 header.

Parameters

|1= or |possess= (required)
Used to say if the noun is possessable or unpossessable and categorizes the entry accordingly (see more at Appendix:Old Tupi nouns). As of now, this is the only parameter for non-pluriform nouns.
|2= or |class= (optional)
Used to specify the noun class (see more at Appendix:Old Tupi nouns). The template recognizes five classes and categorizes the entry accordingly:
Parameter Template shows
Ib Ib class pluriform
IIa IIa class pluriform
IIb IIb class pluriform
IIc IIc class pluriform
IId IId class pluriform
IIe IIe class pluriform
The inflection is done automatically acording to the noun class. If left blank, the template understands it is a non-pluriform noun and does not show any inflection.
|head= (optional)
If necessary, you can specify a diferent headword for the template. It autofills with the page name if left blank.
|ab= (optional)
If necessary, you can specify a diferent absolute form.
|f= or |m= (optional)
Like English, Old Tupi nouns have no gender inflection, but sometimes male and female counterparts have their own words — for example sarigûeîa (female opossum) and taîyby (male opossum). This parameter can be used to show these.
|reconstructed=1 (optional)
Use if the noun is reconstructed.
