Template:User:Saph668/niv-decl


This template page is in beta stage.
Its interface has been stabilised, but the template page may still contain errors. Do not deploy widely until the template page has been tested.

Generates a declension table for Nivkh and Nighvng nouns.

Parameters

edit
|1=
Lemma form of the noun.
|2=
Regional endings to display. (use a for Amur, North Sakhalin, and West Sakhalin, b for Central Sakhalin, East Sakhalin, and South Sakhalin)
|3=
Consonant to use in the plural endings, in Cyrillic; use г if the lemma ends in a vowel, liquid, or nasal, ғ if it ends in a plosive, and к after a fricative.
|4=
Consonant to use in the instrumental. For now, should be handled on a case-to-case basis by looking for attestations of the instrumental form. Otherwise, follow the same rules given for parameter 3.
|5=
Consonant to use in the additive and limitative cases. Handle the same way as parameter 4.
|6=
Displays locative ending -n. If left blank, will display nothing. Leave blank if the lemma ends with -n already. Note that the locative case only appears in Amur, North Sakhalin, and West Sakhalin Nivkh, so this parameter will only do anything if |2= is also a.
|head=
Override the table title. (defaults to {{{1}}})

Note

edit

The ablative, accusative, and additive cases have been shortened from their original names in Gruzdeva 1998 for concision. Respectively, in Gruzdeva 1998, they are locative-ablative, accusative-dative, and dative-additive.

This template sources its endings from Gruzdeva 1998.[1]
