The -al declension

I have decided to add even more variation to the noun/adjective declension system.  For nouns whose nominative singular form ends in –r, the plural morpheme changes to –al instead of –ar.  We’ll use the noun ayndir light, to demonstrate it.

Case

Singular

Plural

nominative

ayndir

ayndiral

accusative

ayndirïk

ayndiralga

genitive

ayndirïs

ayndirazla

dative

ayndirïc

ayndiralja

instrumental

ayndirïv

ayndiravla

allative

ayndirïp

ayndiralba

ablative

ayndirïd

ayndiralda

locative

ayndirïks

ayndiralksa

We can thus demonstrate the different plural nominative forms with the nouns for cars, days, lights (all masculine inanimate nouns): ashabun, bözar, ayndiral
