Danish[edit]

The Danish singular neuter positive form is "groft" rather than "grovt". Compare with the English inflection of "knife" vs "knives". --85.81.57.125 11:26, 5 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Gamren Does the template support this? ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 12:31, 5 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for pinging me. The inflection table, which is @Rua's work, doesn't seem to. I did initially enter the wrong form grovt (explicitly, rather than the shortcut t), so she probably wasn't aware of this fortition. It also occurs in stiv, but not in flov, djærv, døv, gæv, halv, lav, sjov, skæv, sløv, or in any of the Latin borrowings ending in -iv.__Gamren (talk) 13:22, 5 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Gamren Then it seems like a GP issue, unless you know how to edit templates yourself. Are any other consonants or consonant clusters affected in a similar way? ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 14:06, 5 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
Um... similar way? What do you mean?__Gamren (talk) 19:25, 5 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Gamren Are there any other consonants that undergo a similar change when followed by -t or is v the only one? ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 09:21, 6 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
