The declension table template for Finnish nominals belonging to Kotus declension type 9 (kala): nominals with stems ending in ⟨-a⟩, 2 syllables, non-rounded vowel (⟨a⟩, ⟨e⟩, ⟨i⟩) in first syllable, with final-syllable gradation.

|1= (required)

The part of the word prior to the consonant with gradation and/or the final vowel.

|2= (required)

The strong grade. Leave empty if there is no gradation.

|3= (required)

The weak grade. Leave empty if there is no gradation.

|4= (required)

The vowel harmony of the word, specified as either a or ä.

Specific to this particular inflection type:

|ain= (optional)

Use |ain=1 to mark the -Ain genitive plural as an additional non-rare form and |ain=2 to mark it as the primary form. By default, it is marked as rare.

In addition, all declension table templates support additional common parameters:

|pos=

The part of speech. This defaults to "noun". Use "adj" for adjectives. (This affects whether the comitative plural gets a possessive suffix)

|n=sg, |n=pl, |n=csg

For singular-only, plural-only or chiefly singular-only (plurals exist, but very restricted in use) nominals, respectively.

|suffix=

Suffix to place immediately after all forms.

|poss=

The possessive form identifier, if any. If supplied, must be one of 1s (first-person singular), 2s (second-person singular), 3s (third-person singular / plural), 1p (first-person plural) or 2p (second-person plural).

If not supplied, the word is assumed to not have a possessive suffix in the form, and a table is shown of the possible possessive forms, which can be suppressed by supplying - as the value (or by having a part of speech other than a noun or adjective).

|adjpossok=1

Hides the note for possessive forms with adjectives, if the adjective in question (e.g. an agent participle) is known to use possessive suffixes regularly. |hideadjnote=1 is a deprecated alias.
