Feasibility[edit]
We have discussed the possibilities of this template on the Navajo Wikipedia and we came to the conclusion that it will not be possible to do it. Faltz’s grammar is good, but it is really intended for the person who already knows the forms, so that he can see the logic in how the forms that he knows are constructed. If you apply all of his rules to random Navajo verbs, a large number of nonexistent forms will be generated. Navajo verbs are too irregular and erratic, and each form is going to have to be entered manually, the way I did with yicha (which, BTW, isn’t finished yet), and the way we have to do it with the Russian verbs. It’s disappointing, I know, but better to realize it now than to do all that work and then find it only works with five or ten simple verbs. —Stephen (Talk) 04:15, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
