In Greek it is "ἀνώμαλος, -ον" (or with other words "masculine ἀνώμαλος, feminine ἀνώμαλος, neuter ἀνώμαλοςον"), and so it might (also) be "anomalos, -on" in Latin.

  • books?id=v4LC-nELjQYC&pg=PA176 - in this book it is "anomalos, -on". Similarily it is "anōmalos (-us), on (um)" in Georges' dictionary, though "anomalus, anomalus, anomalum" seems strange.
  • books?id=XXhVAAAAcAAJ&pg=PA18 - in this older dictionary it is "Anomalos, -a, -on". Similarily it is "ănōmălŏs (-us), a, on (um)" in Lewis' & Short's dictionary.

As simple quotes for "anomala" do not verify the word "anomalos, a, on" other quotes are needed. For verification one needs quotes which use "anomalos" together with a feminine word (like "conjugatio anomalos"), or quotes which use both anomalos/anomalon and anomala very near to each other (like "conjugatio anomala" next to "verbum anomalon"). -84.161.45.214 16:09, E: 16:20, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@84.161.45.214: I've added a citation of the Greek-type accusative feminine singular form anōmalān to Citations:anomalos. Since that form doesn't occur in the Latinate declension (wherein it is anōmalam), can I assume that that citation sufficiently supports the feminine columns of the Grecian declension as far as you're concerned? — I.S.M.E.T.A. 20:11, 9 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
