Proto-West Germanic u-stem nouns.

These nouns are masculine, feminine or rarely neuter, typically with the following endings:

• in the nominative singular: -u;
• in the genitive singular: -ō;
• in the nominative plural: -iwi or -ō when masculine or feminine, unattested when neuter.

The stem classes are named from the perspective of Proto-Germanic and may not still be visible in Proto-West Germanic inflections.
