Template:ja-adj/documentation

Usage

General

|1= and |2=, |3= ...

The kana forms of the word, with transliteration markups.

• In kana-titled entries, this parameter is optional. It can be used to provide transliteration markups, hiragana-katakana variant form, or links in the headword.
• In entries whose titles are not pure kana, this parameter is required. Unlike in kana-titled entries, hiragana-katakana variant form and links in this parameter will be ignored. For links, use |head= instead.

Important: Template:ja-pos use a slightly different format. |1= is POS ("adverb", etc). All kana forms come after it starting from |2=.

|rom= (optional) and |rom2=, |rom3= ...

Manual transliteration that overrides the automatically generated ones.

|head= (optional) and |head2=, |head3= ...

Overrides the non-kana form used with the corresponding kana form to generate the displayed ruby headword. It may contain links and some ruby markups. This parameter has no effect in kana-titled entries.

|label= (optional) and |label2=, |label3= ...

A label to be displayed beside the corresponding displayed headword. E.g. |label2=less common.

|hist= (optional) and |hist2=, |hist3= ...

Historical kana forms.

Adjective

|infl=

Type of inflection. Valid values are:

• |infl=i or |infl=い: i-adjective
• |infl=na or |infl=な: na-adjective
• |infl=is: slightly irregular -i inflection, for 良い or words ending with it
• |infl=nari or |infl=なり: classical nari adjective
• |infl=tari or |infl=たり: classical tari adjective

Examples

For entries in hiragana or katakana, nearly everything is automatic. Only specify the inflection. For example, at うざい:

{{ja-adj|infl=i}}

うざい • (uzai) -i (adverbial うざく (uzaku))

A typical term with kanji such as 面白い should use this template like this:

{{ja-adj|infl=i|おもしろい}}

面(おも)白(しろ)い • (omoshiroi) -i (adverbial 面(おも)白(しろ)く (omoshiroku))
