Feminine and neuter
editAccents can be different in the feminine and neuter, and it would be good that they are shown, and have an alternative display parameter. Currently head=
is used for the masculine, so perhaps for the feminine and neuter that would be head-f=
and head-n=
. --Ivan Štambuk (talk) 11:55, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
- Why would particularly the feminine and neuter nominative singular be useful to show? Are they "principal parts"? —CodeCat 13:02, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
- Because accents can be different for different genders in the nominative singular. Since we don't have accented paradigms yet, it's useful to have them there. E.g. for *bělъ having the headword bě̃lъ m, *běla̍ f, *bělo̍ n, which more easily explains Serbo-Croatian b(ij)ȇl, b(ij)éla, b(ij)élo. Alternatively, it could all be listed as
head=
(with commas and{{m}}
,{{g}}
,{{f}}
), but it seems hackish. --Ivan Štambuk (talk) 15:45, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
