If I have it correctly, VL had the following forms: Nom Masc Sing ILLU > ILLUS by analogy with adjectives Gen Masc Sing ILLUIUS Dat Masc Sing ILLUI (should that be ILLUÍ ?) Nom Fem Sing ILLA Gen Fem Sing ILLAEUS Dat FemSing ILLAEI (ILLAEÍ ?) Can anyone tell me the VL plural forms?
I take the following forms from Hall's Proto-Romance Morphology: nmp 'illi gmp il'loru dmp 'illis nfp 'illas gfp il'laru (?) dfp 'illisI think Hall marks tonic vowels with an acute accent; I've stuck a mark ' at the front of the syllable. (He also marks the /o/ in "il'loru" as being tense. I'm not quite sure why he puts a question mark after the gfp il'laru; maybe there's no evidence actually attesting it?
