I was pretty sure we were talking about the same thing :)<br><br>While complex morphology can be handled, I don't think it's generally done. String manipulation can be executed by adding a string software extension, and more complex operations are possible with the programming language lua. <br><br>However, the way I see conjugations and declensions generally handled is to just provide the necessary forms and have the generator add endings as appropriate. Here are the sections showing how plurals of English nouns are derived:<br><br>{{en-noun}} - nothing provided, resulting in "(plural faces)"<br>{{en-noun | wolves}} - the entire plural form is just spelled out<br>{{en-noun | sheep}} - the entire plural form is just spelled out<br>{{en-noun | es | tomatos}} - This results in "(plural tomatoes or tomatos)" <br>{{en-noun | fish | fishes}} - both forms are just spelled out<br><br>Here are the conjugation portions of two sample verbs (adding spaces for ease of reading):<br><br>1. The verb andare in Italian (template at https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Template:it-conj-are):<br><br>{{it-conj-are | and | essere<br> | pres1s=vado | pres1s2=vo | pres2s=vai | pres3s=va | pres3p=vanno<br> | prem1s=andai | prem2s=andasti | prem3s=andò<br> | fut1s=andrò | fut2s=andrai | fut3s=andrà | fut1p=andremo | fut2p=andrete | fut3p=andranno<br> | cond1s=andrei | cond2s=andresti | cond3s=andrebbe | cond1p=andremmo | cond2p=andreste | cond3p=andrebbero<br> | sub123s=vada | sub3p=vadano<br> | imp2s=va' | imp2s2=va | imp2s3=vai | imp3s=vada | imp3p=vadano}}<br><br>The main parameters are that it's an -are verb that takes essere as the auxiliary verb. The rest provides irregular forms. From these parameters, about 50 conjugation pages are created. <br><br>2. The Latin verb ambio (template at https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Template:la-verb):<br><br>{{la-verb | ambio | ambiō | ambire | ambīre | ambivi | ambīvī | ambitum | ambītum}}<br><br>From this, about 120 conjugation pages are generated.<br><br>One bonus feature that I think was added fairly recently is that automatically generated pages are in green until they are edited just so people can be aware that there might be a problem.<br><br>Ben Barrett<br>La Conner, WA<br><br>Learn Ainu! <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://sites.google.com/site/aynuitak1/videos">https://sites.google.com/site/aynuitak1/videos</a><p> </p>
