{{ga-decl-m2|1|2|3|pl=|dat=|datoc=}}

The three positional parameters and pl= are obligatory; the other two named parameters are optional.

1 is the initial letter of the word (case-sensitive); if the first letter is s, then the first two letters of the word should be listed here
2 is the nominative singular form of the noun, omitting the initial letter(s)
3 is the genitive singular form of the noun, omitting the initial letter(s)
pl= should be followed by the complete plural form, omitting the initial letter(s)
dat= should be followed by the complete dative singular form, omitting the initial letter(s) (if the noun has a distinct dative singular), or be omitted (if the noun has a dative singular identical in form to the nominative singular)
datoc= marks the circumstances under which the distinctive dative form occurs; it must be set to one of the following:
- a if it occurs only in archaic and dialectal texts and not in the standard language at all
- p if it occurs in the standard language only in certain phrases
- s if it occurs in the standard language under all or almost all circumstances
