---|---|---|
aquila (“eagle”) | {{it-noun|f}} , {{it-noun|f|+}} |
Basic usage, with default plural (which is usually correct). The plural code + explicitly requests the default.
|
aquila f (plural aquile) | ||
giornalista (“journalist”) | {{it-noun|mfbysense}} |
Basic usage of a term that can be either masculine or feminine (depending on the semantic sense). Automatically generates masculine plural giornalisti and feminine plural giornaliste. |
giornalista m or f by sense (masculine plural giornalisti, feminine plural giornaliste) | ||
università (“university”) | {{it-noun|f|#}} |
Invariable noun (plural same as singular). |
università f (invariable) | ||
acqua regia (“acqua regia”) | {{it-noun|f|-}} |
Singular-only noun (uncountable). |
acqua regia f (uncountable) | ||
smithsonite (“smithsonite”) | {{it-noun|f|~}} |
Noun that is both countable and uncountable. |
smithsonite f (countable and uncountable, plural smithsoniti) | ||
capodipartimento (“department head”) | {{it-noun|mfbysense|cap*}} |
The special plural code cap* is used with nouns beginning with capo- and requests a plural in capi- if masculine, and an invariable plural if feminine.
|
capodipartimento m or f by sense (masculine plural capidipartimento, feminine plural invariable) | ||
capocronista (“chief news editor”) | {{it-noun|mfbysense|cap*+}} |
The special plural code cap*+ is used with nouns beginning with capo- and requests regular gender-specific pluralization, along with a plural in capi- if masculine; hence, masculine capicronisti, feminine capocroniste.
|
capocronista m or f by sense (masculine plural capicronisti, feminine plural capocroniste) | ||
capotreno (“railroad conductor”) | {{it-noun|mfbysense|mpl=cap*|mpl2=+|fpl=#}} |
Here there are two masculine plurals requested, capitreno (using the code cap* ) and capotreni (the default plural), along with an invariable feminine plural.
|
capotreno m or f by sense (masculine plural capitreno or capotreni, feminine plural invariable) | ||
stomaco (“stomach”) | {{it-noun|m|stomaci|pl2=stomachi}} |
Two plurals. The default plural is stomaci but here we list both explicitly for clarity. |
stomaco m (plural stomaci or stomachi) | ||
acino d'uva (“grape”) | {{it-noun|m}} |
The default plural recognizes prepositions such as d' and handles them correctly; so does the default linking algorithm. |
acino d'uva m (plural acini d'uva) | ||
base aerea (“air base”) | {{it-noun|f}} |
The default plural for two-word terms pluralizes both parts. |
base aerea f (plural basi aeree) | ||
addetto stampa (“press agent”) | {{it-noun|m|+first|f=+}} |
The default would be addetti stampi, which is incorrect. We need to request that only the first word be pluralized, using +first . We also request a default feminine addetta stampa.
|
addetto stampa m (plural addetti stampa, feminine addetta stampa) | ||
grillotalpa (“mole cricket”) | {{it-noun|f|g2=m|fpl=+|mpl=grillitalpa|mpl_qual=rare}} |
This noun can be either feminine or masculine, but the masculine irregular plural grillitalpa is rare. |
grillotalpa f or m (masculine plural (rare) grillitalpa, feminine plural grillotalpe) | ||
corno (“horn”) | {{it-noun|m|+|pl_g=m|pl_qual=in all meanings|pl2=corna|pl2_g=f|pl2_qual=alternatively when referring to animals}} |
This noun can change gender in the plural. |

carcere (“prison”) | {{it-noun|m|g2=f|g2_qual=outdated or literary|+|pl_g=f}} |

carcere m or (outdated or literary) f (plural carceri f) | ||
amor | {{it-noun|m|apoc=1}} |
Apocopated (apocopic) noun form. |
