estonian declension type 11

According to [1] the Estonian proper noun Küpros (K`üpros; "Cyprus") at the illative (kuhu) singular have the following suffixes: -(es)se and -ele, but the module does not provide for this exception of the declension/inflection of type 11. --DelvecchioSimone12 5 96 (talk) 18:57, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

So, if I unterstood correctly, the proper noun Küpros have three singular illative forms: Küprosse, Küprosesse and Küprosele. --DelvecchioSimone12 5 96 (talk) 19:25, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

Sorry for not noticing this sooner. Küprosele is the allative. For placenames there is generally only one case used for the meaning of "to somewhere". So you say "Saaremaale", never "Saaremaasse". And "Tallinna" or "Tallinnasse", never "Tallinnale". Some, like Küpros, are exceptions, with all 3 forms being used. So "Küprosele" is not the illative, it is the allative that is being used equally with the illative. Also, "kuhu" just means "where" in a lative sense, it can refer to both the illative and allative depending on the noun, or even a postpositional phrase. Strombones (talk) 15:38, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
