Category:Old Norse ō-stem nouns

Old Norse ō-stem nouns.

These nouns are feminine, typically with the following endings:

  • in the nominative singular: the bare stem with u-umlaut;
  • in the genitive singular: -ar without u-umlaut;
  • in the nominative plural: -ar or -ir without u-umlaut.

The stem classes are named from the perspective of Proto-Germanic and may not still be visible in Old Norse inflections.
