@Atitarev Module for Belarusian adjectives needs beta-testing. Can you fix the examples to use real Belarusian words everywhere and check the endings? Benwing2 (talk) 03:45, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

@Atitarev Also, if you can create example pages with declensions for words like ма́мын (mámyn), бра́тов (brátov), Івано́в (Ivanóv) (stress may be wrong; ideally both possessive and surname variants), Андры́ев (Andrýjev) (form may be wrong; ideally both possessive and surname variants) and Мары́ін (Marýin) (form may be wrong), I can add support for them.

@Benwing2: Thank you. "brother's" possessive adjective is бра́таў (brátaŭ), here are all the forms. It's in slounik but might be hard to read and interpret at first. Please note how ў alternates with в:

1. masc. бра́таў, бра́тавага, бра́таваму, бра́тавага (anim)/бра́таў(inanim), бра́тавым, бра́тавым
2. fem: бра́тава, бра́тавай, бра́тавай, бра́таву, бра́тавай or бра́таваю, бра́тавай
3. neut: бра́тава, бра́тавага, бра́таваму, бра́тава, бра́тавым, бра́тавым
4. plural: бра́тавы, бра́тавых, бра́тавым, бра́тавых (anim)/бра́тавы (inanim), бра́тавымі, бра́тавых

Belarusian words can't end in -в or have в in front of a consonant. There are a few other impossible combinations. All Russian surnames in -ов, ев, ёв end in ў. --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 08:00, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

@Benwing2: Here's a declension of Бы́каў (from Russian Бы́ков), a Russian native surname in Belarusian.

1. masc. Бы́каў, Бы́кава, Бы́каву, Бы́кава, Бы́кавым, Бы́каве
2. fem: Бы́кава, Бы́кавай, Бы́кавай, Бы́кавау, Бы́кавай or Бы́каваю, Бы́кавай
3. plural: Бы́кавы, Бы́кавых, Бы́кавым, Бы́кавых, Бы́кавымі, Бы́кавых

I don't know with 100% certainty how to decline Ukrainian surnames, such as Лукашэ́нка (Lukašénka). I find different variants. I'll research more. --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 08:11, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

@Benwing2: -ін/-ын possessive adjectives or surnames are declined like possessives or surnames above but without ў/в alternations.

One definite (confirmed) short adjective you can include is здаро́ў (m)/здаро́ва (f)/здаро́ва (n)/здаро́вы (pl) for здаро́вы (zdaróvy). Please note the final -ў in the masculine short form.

I will add more short adjectives if I find them. --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 08:20, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
