Usage

Parameters

The template requires one or two parameters.

|1= the lemma with macrons (if any), including the -um inflectional ending.
|2= the gerundive form with macrons (if any), if it differs from the automatically generated gerundive form.
|2=- if there is no gerundive forms.

Examples

  1. First conjugation gerund with no macrons - amandum (loving)
    {{la-gerund|amandum}}
    amandum (accusative, gerundive amandus)
  2. Third conjugation gerund with macrons - invādendum (assaulting, invading)
    {{la-gerund|invādendum}}
    invādendum (accusative, gerundive invādendus)
  3. Irregular gerundive - eundum (going, proceeding)
    {{la-gerund|eundum|eundum}}
    eundum (accusative, gerundive eundum)
    Because the gerundive does not have the expected form, the second parameter is included.
  4. No gerundive - edendum (eating, consuming)
    {{la-gerund|edendum|-}}
    edendum (accusative, no gerundive)
    The value of the second parameter as "-" indicates that there is no gerundive.
