@Rua: Hello! Can you please do so that if {{{2}}} is -, it triggers (invariable) after the word? Sönder which is now:
sönder (comparative mer sönder, superlative mest sönder)
would become
sönder (invariable, comparative mer sönder, superlative mest sönder)
and gratis which is now:
gratis (uncomparable)
would become
gratis (invariable, uncomparable)
alternatively
gratis (invariable and uncomparable)
or
gratis (invariable and uncomparable)

Invariable is really a property of the inflection, so it should go in the inflection section instead. There should be an inflection table for invariable adjectives. —Rua (mew) 20:04, 21 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Rua: Surely, invariability must have as much to do with inflection as periphrasis and uncombarability, or am I out bicycling?Jonteemil (talk) 22:26, 21 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
Yes, and for that reason I'm not sure the comparative belongs in the headword line either, especially when we duplicate it in an inflection table. —Rua (mew) 12:03, 22 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Rua: Can’t this be a good solution in the meantime then? I mean it’s already used elsewhere, for example on marron#French.Jonteemil (talk) 14:35, 22 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
The difference is that French doesn't use inflection tables, it places the inflections in the headword line. Swedish is too complicated to do that. —Rua (mew) 16:17, 22 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
I've created {{sv-infl-adj-inv}} to use for adjectives with no inflections. —Rua (mew) 16:24, 22 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
That’s perfect, it was needed but I still don’t see the problem with having it i T:head as well, either way I guess this is better than nothing.Jonteemil (talk) 15:22, 25 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
