Dear Members of SIGN,
Iac Marscheir has just proposed the following change to the pluralisation rule:
Add /ð/ to the list of phonemes that trigger <en> pluralization.For context, right now the sounds that trigger an -en plural are [s z ʃ ʒ ʃt ʧ ʤ ʎ ɲ θ]
Please discuss and vote on this proposal in this thread. The people entitled to vote on this proposal are:
@Cresti da Ion Nouacastra-Läxhirescu, MSC -
PER@Françal I. Lux @Iac Marscheir -
PER@Marcel Eðo Pairescu Tafial -
CONTRA@Miestră Schivă, UrN -
PER@xpb According to Rule 4 of SIGN, at least 4 out of 6 current members will have to accept this rule change before it can go into effect.
PER. A perfectly sensible suggestion
PER, parç qe penséu qe "årstiðen" isch pü cumpeténs, es ocså parç qe ça tent el mismeu pläts es la mismă meþodă d'articülaziun qe 'n altră fonimă qi uça <en> per formar el plural.
(PER, because I think "årstiðen" looks cooler, and also because it has the same place and method of articulation as another -en-plural phoneme.)
Since this change would also involve changing the plurals of nouns ending in -rd from -rds to -rden, I will vote CONTRA.
PËR - Much like Iac said, it looks cooler
