my new questions.

1) Words such as ga-wiss, dis-wiss and af-stass are fem. i-stems. But 
how are these in e.g. dative or in plural?
Is the last s removed or is this a part of the root?

Like: Swinþei allái gibandans gumane.
Or as: Swinþei alláize gibandane gumane.

3) The form nasiþs (from nasjan), could this be used as noun? And if 
so, what gender and stem? Or could it be used as adjective?
If any of these may be. Will the þ become d in e.g. dative? Like 
staþs becomes stadái?

6) How to make a compund word when the first word has a stemvowel
