@Wikitiki89: I just created this entry, and I couldn't figure out how to get the conjugation to work. Should I assume from this userpage that you can't figure it out either? Should I just hardcode all the inflected forms? —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 00:08, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
- Strange, I thought it was working before. I temporarily fixed it by adding a blank
hint=
parameter, which will trick it into thinking that it is not a schwa-final stem. I'll look into fixing this in the conjugation module later. --WikiTiki89 15:16, 7 July 2016 (UTC)- I noticed the transliteration is still wrong in the -n final forms. I guess I'll just have to fix the module. Also ping. --WikiTiki89 15:18, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
- @Wikitiki89: Thanks, the hint produces the right forms. I was wrong myself about this word; I don't hear a difference, but it seems it should be eytsen in Standard Yiddish, not eytsn. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 16:54, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
- It's more orthographic than phonetic. The rule is that except after nasals, you don't write the schwa. --WikiTiki89 17:22, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

- @Metaknowledge: Where did you find that eytsen "appears to be standard"? --WikiTiki89 20:32, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
- As always, Weinreich. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 20:40, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
