Documentation

This is my proposal for improving the Latin declension templates.

Required parameters

decl 1, 2, 4, 5

These templates are designed to take one or two arguments.

{{{1}}} = stem without macrons

{{{2}}} = stem with macrons (if needed)

decl 3

These templates are designed to take as few as two arguments or as many as four.

{{{1}}} = singular nominative without macrons

{{{2}}} = stem without macrons

{{{3}}} = singular nominative with macrons (if needed)

{{{4}}} = stem with macrons (if needed)

Optional parameters to rewrite a cell

In the case that you wish to use this template, but you need to modify one cell, then you can use to the optional cell re-write parameters. For example:

Example

{{User:Maikxlx/Template:la-decl-3i|ignis|ign|
abl-sg = [[igni#Latin|ignī]]
[[igne#Latin|igne]] <small>(rare)</small>

Every cell can be rewritten this way:

gen-sg	gen-pl
dat-sg	dat-pl
acc-sg	acc-pl
abl-sg	abl-pl
voc-sg	voc-pl

Optional parameters to extend a cell
