Usage[edit]

This template creates a declension table for Lower Sorbian feminine nouns belonging to classes 4 and 5 in both Jannasch's Deutsch-niedersorbisches Wörterbuch/Słownik němsko-delnjoserbski and Starosta's Dolnoserbsko-nimski słownik/Niedersorbisch-deutsches Wörterbuch, hence the name.

Class 4 includes those feminine nouns ending in:

  • -bja
  • -mja
  • -nja
  • -rja
  • -wja
  • -wej.

Class 5 includes those feminine nouns ending in

  • -ja
  • -la
  • -śa.

It takes one or two obligatory parameters, depending on the class. For class 4 nouns except those ending in -wej, just list the stem (i.e. the nominative singular minus the final -ja) as the only parameter. For class 4 nouns ending in -wej, the first parameter is the first part of the noun before the -wej and the second parameter is wej. For class 5 nouns, the first parameter is the first part of the noun before the stem-final consonant, and the second parameter is the stem-final consonant (one of j, l, or ś, excluding the ending -a.

For example, for the class 4 word murja, add:

====Declension====
{{dsb-decl-noun-4|mur}}

For the class 4 word britwej, add:

====Declension====
{{dsb-decl-noun-4|brit|wej}}

For the class 5 word šula, add:

====Declension====
{{dsb-decl-noun-4|šu|l}}
