Declension

Attested in various forms with various spellings; does not seem to have been fully adapted to any Gothic declension. The attested forms are 𐍀𐍂𐌰𐌹𐍄𐍉𐍂𐌹𐌰𐌿𐌽 (praitōriaun), 𐍀𐍂𐌰𐌹𐍄𐌰𐌿𐍂𐌹𐌰 (praitauria) (sometimes emended to *𐍀𐍂𐌰𐌹𐍄𐌰𐌿𐍂𐌹𐌰𐌿𐌽 (*praitauriaun)) and 𐍀𐍂𐌰𐌹𐍄𐍉𐍂𐌹𐌰 (praitōria) (sometimes emended to 𐍀𐍂𐌰𐌹𐍄𐍉𐍂𐌹𐌰𐌿𐌽 (praitōriaun)). All of these appear to represent the nominative and accusative singular form (being neuter, these forms are identical) in different spellings.
