Template:ja-noun/documentation

This template is used to display a headword-line for a Japanese noun. It should be used beneath a  header. Do not use this for proper nouns, which require and go under a   header.

The template automatically categorizes the entry into Category:Japanese nouns.

The entry is automatically added to Category:Japanese hiragana or Category:Japanese katakana as the case may be.

General

 * 1 and 2, 3 ...
 * The kana forms of the word, with transliteration markups.
 * In kana-titled entries, this parameter is optional. It can be used to provide transliteration markups, hiragana-katakana variant form, or links in the headword.
 * In entries whose titles are not pure kana, this parameter is required. Unlike in kana-titled entries, hiragana-katakana variant form and links in this parameter will be ignored. For links, use head instead.
 * Important: Template:ja-pos use a slightly different format. 1 is POS ("adverb", etc). All kana forms come after it starting from 2.


 * rom and rom2, rom3 ...
 * Manual transliteration that overrides the automatically generated ones.


 * head and head2, head3 ...
 * Overrides the non-kana form used with the corresponding kana form to generate the displayed ruby headword. It may contain links and some ruby markups. This parameter has no effect in kana-titled entries.


 * label and label2, label3 ...
 * A label to be displayed beside the corresponding displayed headword. E.g. less common.


 * hist and hist2, hist3 ...
 * Historical kana forms.

Noun

 * count
 * The counter for the noun. Use - for uncountable.
