Template:cy-adj/documentation

This template is designed for the lemma of all Welsh adjectives.

Usage
Only use this template for the adjective's lemma entry (positive singular).

This template should be placed in Welsh adjective sections, immediately following the ===Adjective=== section header. It provides the inflection line for the entry. The template also automatically categorizes the entry in Category:Welsh adjectives.

As with other Wiktionary inflection templates, please do not use .

Parameters
This template requires one unnamed parameter. All adjectives should have this unnamed parameter. Regular adjectives may have only the one required parameter, or they may include additional named parameters (in any order) as well. Irregular adjectives will require one or more of the additional named parameters.

If in doubt abut the forms displayed in the inflection line, simply use to generate the inflection line. In cases where the unnamed parameter is omitted, the inflection line will simply show the pagename in bold, and the entry will be added to Category:Requests for attention concerning Welsh. Someone else will then add the necessary parameters.

Unnamed parameters
For all adjectives, include the following parameter:
 * 1
 * inflection pattern

The parameter 1 takes one of the following values:
 * - : specifies that the adjective is not comparable.
 * mwy : specifies that the comparative uses, and that the other forms similarly add preceding words.
 * ach : specifies that the comparative adds the ending -ach, and that the other forms similarly add the usual suffixes.

Since this parameter is unnamed, it is not necessary to explicitly specify "1=". Simply include one of the specified values to identify the inflection pattern.

Named parameters
The most commonly required named parameter is:
 * pl, pl2, ...
 * plural form(s)

The parameter pl is required when the plural form differs from the lemma form. When pl is omitted, the template assumes that the singular and plural are the same.

If the adjective has a distinct feminine form, specify it using:
 * f, f2, ...
 * feminine(s)

If the adjective's stem changes when suffixes are added (to form the comparative, superlative, and equative), specify the altered stem using:
 * stem, stem2, ...
 * stem(s)

Irregular adjectives will require one or more additional parameters, as follows:
 * eq, eq2, ...
 * equative form(s)


 * comp, comp2, ...
 * comparative form(s)


 * sup, sup2, ...
 * superlative form(s)

Fully regular adjectives do not require these parameters, although they may be used. It is also possible to specify the headword form(s) in exceptional situations by using the parameter(s) head, head2, ....

Examples

 * 1) Using ach with no plural -  :
 * The first parameter value identifies the ach inflection pattern with suffixes. The plural is identical to the singular, and so need not be included.
 * 1) Using ach with a plural -  :
 * The first parameter value identifies the ach inflection pattern with suffixes. The plural is different form the singular and so must be specified.
 * 1) Using mwy -  :
 * The first parameter value identifies the mwy inflection pattern. Since no plural is specified, it is assumed to be the same as the singular.  The equative form has mutation, and so must be specified.
 * 1) Separate feminine form -  :
 * 2) Stem-changing -  :
 * The comparative (and other forms) exhibit a stem change, so the stem is specified.
 * 1) Irregular -  :
 * The adjective is irregular, so all forms must be specified (except for the plural, which is identical to the singular). The value for 1 is still necessary to specify that mwy is not added to the front of the inflected forms.
 * The first parameter value identifies the mwy inflection pattern. Since no plural is specified, it is assumed to be the same as the singular.  The equative form has mutation, and so must be specified.
 * 1) Separate feminine form -  :
 * 2) Stem-changing -  :
 * The comparative (and other forms) exhibit a stem change, so the stem is specified.
 * 1) Irregular -  :
 * The adjective is irregular, so all forms must be specified (except for the plural, which is identical to the singular). The value for 1 is still necessary to specify that mwy is not added to the front of the inflected forms.
 * The comparative (and other forms) exhibit a stem change, so the stem is specified.
 * 1) Irregular -  :
 * The adjective is irregular, so all forms must be specified (except for the plural, which is identical to the singular). The value for 1 is still necessary to specify that mwy is not added to the front of the inflected forms.
