Usage notes

[edit]

This paradigm applies to Faroese neuter nouns like egg (perhaps the only one of this kind...). One of the double consonants omits in the genitive singular, and in dative plural is an alternative J added to the suffix, which is mandatory in genitive plural.

  1. e (first part of the stem)
  2. g (last part of the stem)
