Example Output for WORDS

Here are some annotated examples of output. Read through them and you will get a good idea of the system.

agricolarum

agricol.arum N 1 1 GEN P M P

> farmer

Here we have the simple first declension noun, and a unique interpretation. The "1 1" means it is first declension, with variant 1. This is an internal coding of the program, and may not correspond exactly with the grammatical numbering. The "N" means it is a noun. It is the form for genitive (GEN), plural (1st 'P'). The stem is masculine (M) and represents a person (2nd 'P'). The stem is given as "agricol" and the ending is "arum". The stem is normal in this case, but is a product of the program, and may not always correspond to conventional usage.

feminae

femin.ae N 1 1 GEN S F P

femin.ae N 1 1 DAT S F P

femin.ae N 1 1 NOM P F P

femin.ae N 1 1 VOC P F P

> woman

Here we have a word that has several possible interpretations in case and number (Singular and Plural). The gender is Feminine. Presumably, the user can examine the adjoining words and reduce the set of possibilities. Maybe the program will take care of this in some future version.
