Does Gothic include a feminine noun-ending equivalent to the
masculine -areis?
I know that English -ess (often alternates with masc. -er) and -rix
(*always* alternates with masc. -or, e.g. aviatrix, unless people are
really sloppy) both come from Latin. But have they replaced Germanic
feminine noun-endings?
