In the strong declension the vowels of the genitive and dative singular have all fallen to e, and those of the dative plural to -, on account of its affinity to m. In the other cases the correspondences with the old vowels and with Gothic are: The y of the Gothic stem ending is always dropped in Anglo-Saxon, but there is a trace of it in the old plural masculine second declension-eas. The s of the nominative and accusative plural feminine is dropped, having been perhaps weakened by the naturally long vowel which preceded it. The genitive plural feminine first declension-ena belongs to the weak declension (147). The accusative plural masculine first and second declension has dropped n. There are also a few-u stems of irregular declension. The nouns of the fourth declension masculine have gone over to the first and second; and those of the second feminine end in-o, which does not change in the singular. There are no third feminines. In the weak declension, Grimm conjectures that all the vowels of the endings of the feminine are long except that of the dative plural.1 This would lead to the conjecture that the masculine stem ended originally in a, and the feminine in a; that a was closed to e in the nominative singular; but that in the other cases except genitive and dative plural both a and a were preserved by the n which followed them, and which perhaps was strengthened by the dropping of the case ending so as to have something of the prolonged softness of the double nasal or nasalised mute (134). In the genitive plural a and a were closed to e and e. And in the nominative and accusative singular of the neuter the a was weakened to e, the original ending having been weaker than masculine-as. 147. The endings ...
