Old Irish masculine o-stem nouns.

These nouns are masculine, typically with the following endings:

  • in the nominative singular: the bare stem;
  • in the genitive singular: the bare stem with raising of the stem vowel where possible, palatalization of the last stem consonant and lenition of the following word;
  • in the nominative plural: same as the genitive singular.

The stem classes are named from the perspective of Proto-Celtic and may not still be visible in Old Irish inflections. These nouns derive from Proto-Celtic masculine *-os (masculine) and *-om (neuter) endings.
