Note that when a word is marked solely as /masculine/ , /feminine/ or
/neutral/ , it is a noun. Otherwise, another marker such as /adj./ should
be added, for instance /f.adj./ for a feminine adjective.
All words are indexed by their spelling as determined by Standard
Eittlandic, which roughly corresponds to the accusative of other
2024-01-28 17:56:38 +00:00
dialects.
All words are indexed by a standardized traditional spelling, with
occasionally their Standard Eittlandic spelling following it (e.g.
/gleym(a) - gløym/ ). Each noun has its declension presented to the
reader as a guide to how it might generally look in dialects other
than Standard Eittlandic, however variations may exist from one
dialect to another. For instance, while most Eittlandic dialects lost
the /ru/ part of the dat.pl. declention, going from /férum/ to /fém/ , some
dialects in East Northern Eittland still retain the former form.
2023-05-25 07:39:43 +00:00
Letters in parenthesis are no longer used when writing Eittlandic but
are still underlying vowels that can still affect the pronunciation of
the word and its surroundings. For instance, /dag/ can represent two
forms of the word /dag(r)/ , /dag/ and /dag(a)/ . The former is pronounced
{{{phon(daɣ )}}} while the latter is pronounced {{{phon(daj)}}} . They can also
represent grammatical cases which are no longer used in Standard
Eittlandic, such as /dag(r)/ shown above which doesn’ t exist as /dagr/ in
2023-10-06 20:40:02 +00:00
Standard Eittlandic, only as /dag/ . The underlying vowel also reappears
when the word is used in its definite form. For instance, /dagr/ becomes
/dagann/ due to the underlying «a» in its accusative form /dag(a)/ while
/fiskr/ becomes /fiskinn/ (the «i» is added when no other vowel can
replace it). To symbolize which definite article is used with nouns,
it is indicated between parenthesis in the accusative case, preceeded
by a dash, as in /dag(a-n)/ .
