Template:vot-decl/päive/documentation

The declension template for Votic nominals ending in -ä (reduced -e) or rarely other vowels, with a genitive singular ending in -VV (reduced -V) and a partitive singular ending in -VA (usually reduced to just -A, if the final vowel is ä).

The following parameters are required:

|1= The strong grade.

|2= The weak grade. If they are the same, both the strong and weak grade should both be set to the geminated final consonant, if any; if there is no gradation and no gemination of the final stem consonant, both can be left empty.

The following parameter is optional:

|3= The final stem vowel. If not specified, the final vowel is used (with õ interpreted as a and e as ä).

The following additional parameters are supported:

|n= Used if the noun has no plural or singular. Use |n=sg for singular only and |n=pl for plural only.

|prefix= Adds an arbitrary prefix. Use this with compound nominals for all parts of earlier words that are not inflected.

|suffix= Adds an arbitrary suffix.

|v= Overrides vowel harmony if the automatic detection gets it wrong. Specify as a or ä.
