Notes

[edit]
  • Thurneysen does not show the vocative particle, dá/dí/díb for the dual, or the initial mutation caused in a noun phrase.
  • Strachan shows the vocative particle, dual, and when the word induces eclipsis. (Referred to by Thurneysen as 'nasalisation', thus the N here, and 'n-' in Strachan.)
  • Neither shows induced lenition. I don't know why.

Accusative ns N ds

If the gs is not supplied, it defaults to the np (if supplied). This goes both ways: if the np is not supplied, it tries gs.

dd defaults to dp, but can be overridden.

gp defaults to ns.
