  • hlátur (laughter); two possible genitives, plural defaults to -ar; also: veður (ram (archaic or poetic); battering ram (archaic); spike at the end of a hiking pole); árekstur (collision; clash)
  • {{is-ndecl|m,s:ar.#|pagename=hlátur}}
  • gróður (plants, vegetation); same as hlátur but no plural; also: rakstur (raking; shoveling)
  • {{is-ndecl|m,s:ar.#.sg|pagename=gróður}}
  • lestur (reading, perusal); two possible genitives, plural defaults to -ar; also: fyrirlestur (lecture), kappróður (regatta), rekstur (driving, herding; operation; processing, management), róður (rowing)
  • {{is-ndecl|m,ar:s.#|pagename=lestur}}
  • akkur (benefit, advantage); -ur can either be a nom ending or part of the stem. The syntax here is the standard "alternation" syntax found in the inflection specs of all languages that use Module:inflection utilities (which is several dozen by now).
  • {{is-ndecl|((<m.#.sg>,<m.sg>))|pagename=akkur}}
  • fingur (finger): irregular nom/acc pl
  • {{is-ndecl|m.#.nompl+accpl:#|pagename=fingur}}
  • fingur (finger): because certain common irregular nouns have several compounds that behave the same way, they can be handled automatically using '@', which means "built-in". It looks for recognized suffixes and uses an internal mapping to the appropriate declension specs. Examples of compounds of fingur: baugfingur (ring finger); litlifingur (little finger, pinky); skollafingur (fir clubmoss); vísifingur (index finger); þumalfingur (thumb).

  • {{is-ndecl|((<m>,<m,,ir.##.datplm:um>))|pagename=skjór}}
  • sjór (sea); in the following, ## indicates that the stem subtracts -r from the lemma; the colon at the beginning of the genitive ending (after the first comma) means that the overrides are full forms; and the ~ stands for the stem.

miscellaneous irregular words in -ur

[edit]
  • maður (man; one); here, the underlying stem is 'mann' and, as shown by the def nom/acc pl, the underlying plural is -ir, but replaced in the indef nom/acc pl with menn. We handle this by setting the stem appropriately and then overriding only the indefinite nom and acc pl (the ! means to only do the indefinite, not both indefinite and definite as would normally happen). We also make this a built-in as there are so many compounds of -maður.
  • {{is-ndecl|m,s,ir.decllemma:mannur.imut.!nompl+accpl:menn|pagename=maður}}
  • {{is-ndecl|m.@|pagename=maður}}
  • fótur (foot); i-mutation in dat sg fæti and in nom/acc pl fætur. Here, the ^ in ^ur is a special signal to do i-mutation of the stem before the ending, even if it doesn't contain -i-. Internally, -ur as nom pl is treated specially in that the accusative plural is also -ur instead of -u as you'd normally expect.
  • {{is-ndecl|m,ar,^ur.imut.dati|pagename=fótur}}
  • {{is-ndecl|m.@|pagename=fótur}}
  • vetur (winter); no i-mutation, just irregular plural -ur (see comments for fótur). # means nominative is stem (same as `stem:#`). Contraction is the default in such a case.
  • {{is-ndecl|m,ar,ur.#|pagename=vetur}}
  • {{is-ndecl|m.@|pagename=vetur}}
  • fingur (finger); almost identical story to vetur, just a different ending in the gen sg. As with vetur, contraction is the default.

terms needing unuumut
[edit]
  • NOTE: Per Thomson, "All nouns that end in -un in the nominative singular are feminine and belong to this group." Not sure if I completely believe that, but at least we can make `unuumut` the default for -un nouns that are feminine. Note that the genitive singular, strangely, maintains the u-mutation (pöntunar rather than #pantanar). Note also that the original u-mutated form, whatever it is, reappears in the dative plural; we should remember and reuse it rather then regenerating it from the un-u-mutated form.
  • NOTE: In örvun, the un-u-mutation of ö is blocked by the following v, but u still -> a hence pl örvanir.

Notes

[edit]
  • Generation of accusative plural:
  • in masculine, -ar and -ir drop the <r>, but -ur keeps it.
  • in feminine, -ar, -ir and -ur all keep the <r>.
  • Generation of definine accusative plural:
  • -u ending (archaic) can't form definite accusative plural; drop it.
