Appendix:Georgian noun declension

New design

General ideas

First of all, nothing is unchangable here, you can suggest anything not yet.

This template is gonna be a lot smarter with the help of modules.

This template is gonna conform to entropy, in that the more frequent a word is the less number of arguments it will take )).

Arguments will be of two type: word's some (cryptic) case(s) or additional parameters (like noplural, etc.).

Also, for the meaning of savrtsobi see this.

The Brilliant Idea

Initial design was so cumbersome I thought noone could understand it except for me, but then I had a brilliant idea, let's make the template talk! --Dixtosa (talk) 21:11, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

Questions

1. Is there any given name that is syncopic?

Word ends in -ი

Notes

If the case given is genitive it only gives us info about syncopation ? (needs checking). But with the help of hyphen we can determine whether stem ends in vowel or consonant (as in here #გიორგი).

ფეხი

usage: {{ka-decl-noun}}

description:

plural = YES

given name = NO

vocative = -ო

savrtsobi = აააა

comment = the most common type of word

პლუტონი

usage: {{ka-decl-noun|noplural}} OR {{ka-decl-noun|params = noplural}} OR {{ka-decl-noun|nom2=}}

description:

plural = NO

given name = NO

vocative = -ო

savrtsobi = აააა

comment = the same as #ფეხი, but does not have plural

გიორგი

usage: {{ka-decl-noun|given name|გიორგი-ს}} OR {{ka-decl-noun|გიორგი-ს|params = given name}} OR {{ka-decl-noun|erg1=გიორგიმ}}

description:

plural = NO

given name = YES

vocative = STEM (გიორგი)

savrtsobi = --იი

comment = stem ends in a vowel

დავითი

usage: {{ka-decl-noun|noplural}} OR {{ka-decl-noun|given name}} OR {{ka-decl-noun|params = given name}} OR {{ka-decl-noun|nom2=}}

description:

plural = NO

given name = YES

vocative = STEM (დავით)

savrtsobi = --იი //I do not know for sure but this should be the case

comment = stem ends in a consonant

სტუმარი

usage: {{ka-decl-noun|სტუმრის}} OR {{ka-decl-noun|gen1=სტუმრის}}

description:

plural = YES

given name = NO

vocative = -ო

savrtsobi = აააა

comment = just like #ფეხი, but has syncopic stem

მინდორი

usage: {{ka-decl-noun|მინდვრის}} OR {{ka-decl-noun|gen1=მინდვრის}}

description:

plural = YES

given name = NO

vocative = -ო

savrtsobi = აააა

comment = just like #სტუმარი, but its syncopication is little more complex

ჟოკეი

usage: {{ka-decl-noun|ჟოკეი|novocative|savrtsobi=აააა}} OR {{ka-decl-noun|gen1=მინდვრის}}

description:

plural = YES //have 0 idea how to plualize

given name = NO

vocative = NO //for now

savrtsobi = აააა

comment = the least frequent type of word; just like #გიორგი, with the savrtsobi being the only difference (--იი vs აააა).
