	Encyclopedia article: Declension class (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		In linguistics (The scientific study of language), a declension class is a group of noun (A word that can be used to refer to a person or place or thing) s with common declension (The inflection of nouns and pronouns and adjectives in Indo-European languages) patterns.
		In the Latin language (additional info and facts about Latin language) (see Latin declension (additional info and facts about Latin declension)), there are five declension classes, one of which is the first declension.
		The nouns of this class usually end in -a and are usually of feminine grammatical gender (A grammatical category in inflected languages governing the agreement between nouns and pronouns and adjectives; in some languages it is quite arbitrary but in Indo-European languages it is usually based on sex or animateness).

	Latin declension - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This declension class is the last to develop in Latin; the only nouns that have the full declension are diēs and fidēs.
		The first (called the "first and second declension") combines the a and o declensions of nouns, with the a endings added when the adjective is feminine, and the o forms for masculines.
		The other class for adjectives (called the "third declension") is similar to the third class for nouns, with the important difference that nearly all these adjectives form the ablative singular in -ī, not in -e.

		The other declensions are called, not surprisingly, the second, third, fourth and fifth declension, and are distinguished form one another in part by the thematic, or characteristic, vowel that appears in its endings.
		The genitive singular ending of the first declension is "-ae", that of the second declension is "-i", that of the third is "-is", that of the fourth is "-us", and that of the fifth is "-ei" If you know the genitive singular of a noun you know what declension the noun follows.
		Unlike the first declension and the first part of the second, whose nouns could be either feminine or masculine, all nouns which follow this second part of the second declension are neuter.

		It includes lists of word classes and features which some modern European language expresses morphologically (where “morphology” includes typographic or other presentational features like capitalization).[1] It does not include all the features found useful by those who have analyzed machine-readable texts in the past; notably, purely syntactic and purely semantic features are not included.
		The standard examplars of these classes can be assigned to other classes (article, adjective, pronoun, adverb in some cases) and the issues here tend to be sufficiently theory-dependent to make it unclear how to define these classes and their internal structure in general terms.
		Absence of these classes as an articulated structure here should not be taken to mean disapproval by the work group as a whole of the specification of structures for them and their treatment as separate classes.

		Thus you have to keep distinct in your mind the declension of adjective with which you are working and the declension of the noun it modifies, while making them agree in gender, number, and case.
		Given that 1st and 2nd declension adjectives are the same as nouns of the 1st and 2nd declension, you would expect the same to hold true of the third.
		Most importantly, please pay careful attention to the ablative singular; whereas in 3rd declension nouns it is -e, in 3rd declension adjectives it is -i.

		Thus it is expected that the final /-a/ of the neuter noun declension would disappear under liason, but unexpected that the neuter noun ending /-o/ would also be lost, since it descends from original /-on/.
		ETYMOLOGY: In Costanice, the third declension has absorbed a great many nouns that did not originally belong to it, such as feminine nouns ending in short /a/ and those nouns that in Koine end in /a/ because the previous letter is /r/, /i/, or /e/.
		There is a subclass of masculine and feminine nouns in the third declension which has a few peculiarities--namely, stress regularly on the antepenult syllable and a few peculiarities of the endings.

	Russian Gender and Agreement (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The reason adjectives and verbs find nouns so agreeable is that they also have gender and declension class, and it is these adjectives and verbs must agree with.
		All adjectives and verbs in the past tense must agree with nouns as to masculine, feminine, neuter, or plural.
		Remember, the agreement categories do not correspond one-one with natural gender or the declension classes—Declension I nouns may be either masculine (стол) or neuter (окно) and both Declension II (книга) and Declension III nouns (дверь) are feminine (gender relations are never simple).

		Derivation, declension, adjective and verb agreement, and auxiliary words all vary according to noun-class.
		Between the article and the noun, they take no special affixes; when there is no article, they come after the noun, and take endings that agree in gender with their nouns: -ai for persons, -0 for plants, animals, and things, -(a)n for mass nouns, -i for places and times, -wa for intangibles.
		Verbs come in two classes, stative and active, most of which are marked by a suffix stem: respectively, -ang and -0.

		This declension class is described to be final HL both in singular and plural according to Saeed (1993).

	Lesson VII
		The first declension was brought to you by the letter "a," which was usually visible.
		It is a habit of the third declension for the real stem not to be obvious in the nominative singular, but to appear in the genitive and everywhere else.
		The ending -us is often third or fourth declension, not second; this is why you have to recall the genitive.

	IULA (UPF) - Third Mediterranean Meeting on Morphology
		As the existence of syncretism follows directly from neither approach, and is statable in either, syncretism alone in principle does not distinguish between the theories.
		This requirement is not statable in frameworks such as Distributed Morphology; if substantiated as a universal, it would constitute a convincing argument for paradigmatic knowledge, i.e., a "yes" answer to (1).
		In the Russian nominal and adjectival declension, accusative (A) is systematically identical to either genitive (B) or nominative (C) (conditioned by animacy) in all plurals and masculine and neuter singulars.

	Syncretism Bibliography
		Acceptable versus unacceptable in the history of Slavic noun declensions is examined: the accusative does not fall together with the dative, nor the instrumental with the locative.
		Changes have entailed primarily (i) disambiguation of nominative-accusative syncretism by the use of the genitive for the animate accusative; (ii) changes in declension class membership, resulting tangentially in the increase or decerease of particular patterns; (iii) extension of particular syncretic patterns from one declension class to another (chiefly involving the genitive and locative).
		Section 5 follows Pike’s (1965) analysis of German pronominal declension, and concludes (largely on the comparison of nominative and accusative forms) that "a close similarity expression […] seems to be paralleled by an equally close semanto-syntactic similarity", but this is "not to say that such a parallelism must be there under all circumstances".
