Usage notes[edit]

LĒL only lists eḑḑisõnā for this sense. LĒL classifies all the words of this type (analōgij, statsij, etc.) as belonging to inflection type 123. Their plurals are analōgijd, statsijd, etc. unlike the plural given by Šuvcāne and Ernštreite with an ⟨õ⟩. The former two do however use the term eḑḑisõnā with the meaning foreword, LĒL lists this as an alternate meaning for this word.
