XL The nominative endings have found their way in: fjȯrahwa‘rf, fjɔraskit, fjȯraskit and rivatwari.

-r from -(a)r is found in ōrli, wȯrli [*árhlið] and ᶊūrməl [*sjóvarmál],. On the other hand: “sūs” = sjós in sū··sameᶅ·abak··a. forms, governed by millum, are found in: hosameᶅ·a [*húsa millum], and skäƫ·ɩmeliskrū·a = skɔtameliskrū·.

14. A trace of the ending -ar is to be found in skɛklər, still remembered by a few persons as the old of skɛkəl (see in Dict.). Now skɛkəl and skɛklər alternate as forms; : skɛkəls and skɛklərs.

15. The derivative ending -ing(r) (-ung(r)) mostly changes to -in (through analogy with words, taken from English and Scottish, ending in -in’ — ing), more rarely -ən. Examples:

bja‘rtin [birtingr]. bulin or bolin [bulungr and bolungr], , ēᶊins [*æsingar]. fjēdin [*feitingr?]. fudin [*fótingr = *fœtingr?]. -grȯinin [ grunnungr], *. grønin [ graaning], see § 12. hālin [*halingr]. ha‘ŋklin [*hangling(r)]. hō·kɩl(l)·in [hákerling]. hømin [*hýming]. jɛlin [ iling]. kläinin [klíningr], klø̄vin [*kløyfingr]. pjuslin, pøslin [ pusling]. rɩvlin [hriflingr], sɛtnin [*setningr]. skāvin [*skafingr], $2$. skɔt·hȯm·lin [-hǫmlungr]. skrōvin [*skráfingr]. snɩgin [*hneggingr],, stablin [*stabblingr]. sti̇̄vin, stivən [*stýfingr]. ta‘nt·fɛᶅ·ən [*tantfellingr], $1, 2$. -ən for -əŋ in stamərən [*stafnrǫng],.

In a few words (in certain parts of the Isles, such as in the isle of Whalsey and in Yell) the ending -iən appears for -in, ūriən = hōrin. In a few words ending in -i, the -i seems to be an of -in, : hâli ( hālin). kāvi for *kāvin = *kafingr. kōgi [kagingr?], *$1$. negi = ( snɩgin). rāmi (for: *rāmin).
 * bɛldᶎiən [ belgingr]. glūbiən [*glúpingr]. rādiən, rōdiən.

16. In some cases -in alternates with -ək, corresponding to an old -ingr, : fȯitlin and fȯit(l)ək [ *fœt(l)ingr]. hōrin and hōrək, see ūriən. njafin and njafək. skɛptin and skɛbdək [*skeptingr].

17. In a number of words -ək has found its way, replacing -in, corresponding to -ingr (-ungr). Examples:

br$e$ɩᶇək, bräᶇək [ brenning], $1$. brølək. būrək. ɛrək, ærək [*æringr]. grø̄mək [*grýmingr = *grímungr?]. hȯdək [*hǫddungr?], $2$. hūdək, hø̄dək [hótingr? hœtingr?]. jarmək [*jarmingr]. sələk, sʌlək [ silungr], $2$,. ski̇̄tək [*skítingr]. slȯdərək [*slytringr]. swäƫək, [*skvettingr], ,

In individual cases it is uncertain whether -ək is only a later addition to the word-root or represents an older -ingr, -ungr, : pʌ‘ltək [piltr or piltungr],.

18. The derivative ending -ari almost always changes to -ər ( -er). The words form exceptions to this rule:

bjin·târ· [*bindari],, stɔŋgari̇, stoŋ·gari̇̄ [*stangari].

In drȯᶇasi [*drynjari],, -asi has replaced an older -ari.

The ending -ar(r) has changed to -ari, -əri in: de hāmaris (-riᶊ) or heməris, həməris =.

The ending -ur(r) is recognisable in the word gȯᶅūr·, gaᶅūr· [gollurr].
