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 these source strings: strong a-stem (3,376) , Strong a-stem (1) , strong a- stem (1) . Together they hold 3,378 records.

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.
