Usage

This template is for Irish nouns whose declension cannot be shown with a more specific declension table. This template is primarily intended for nouns consisting of multiple words, such as noun + genitive or noun + adjective constructions.

All forms must be entered in full, including the links, in the order shown in the table below. This template does not pregenerate anything but the table.

There is one obligatory named parameter declclass=, which is to be followed by the number of the noun’s declension class: first, second, third, fourth, or fifth; or irr for Irregular.

For example, a masculine noun beginning with a vowel (éan gé):

====Declension====

gen.pl.def.-->{{l|ga|na [[n-éan gé]]}}|<!--

or a feminine noun beginning with a consonant (cailleach dhubh):

Use {{l|ga||'''...'''}} (with two vertical bars after ga to suppress the link) for forms that are identical to the page name and {{l|ga|...}} for everything else. For the vocative and the forms with the definite article, add bracketed links inside {{l}} so that only the noun forms are linked, and not the vocative particle or definite article. Be sure to create separate links for mutated forms.

For uncountable nouns, just put — (an em dash) in the cells for the plural forms.

If the nominative singular is empty (for example, in plural-only nouns), specify the lemma form using head=.
