East Slavic descendants?

• Belarusian гараджа́нін (haradžánin), гарадча́нін (haradčánin)
• Ukrainian городя́нин (horodjányn)

Both seem irregular, though. PUC – 09:18, 25 August 2020 (UTC)

@PUC: I think the Ukrainian form is due to leveling with *-ěninъ. The Belarussian forms technically reflect *gordьčaninъ apparently from *gordьcь +‎ *-janinъ (compare Bulgarian родопчанин (rodopčanin, “dweller of Rhodopa mountains”), пловдивчанин (plovdivčanin, “dweller of Plovdiv”) for the same extended suffix). We could add them with a comment, though? Безименен (talk) 10:31, 25 August 2020 (UTC)

*-in- in the plural

Shouldn't the *-in- be dropped in the plural, as is the case with *slověninъ? OosakaNoOusama (talk) 04:04, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

@OosakaNoOusama yes, it should and inflect as consonant stem but {{sla-decl-noun}} doesn't handle such cases. —Игорь Тълкачь (talk) 15:24, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
