How a class is assigned
The label is Wiktionary's own inflection-table type for the headword, taken from the
kaikki.org extraction of Wiktionary. It is not inferred by this site. Where Wiktionary uses the same
class with different capitalisation or line breaks, the spellings are merged here; this page
represents this source string:
strong .
Strong nouns keep a thematic vowel (a, ō, i, u …) that shows up in the endings; weak nouns use a nasal stem (-an, -n-) in most cases. A headword can be tagged in more than one class when it has several table-bearing senses, so the per-class headword counts overlap.
