KLatin Notes - Nouns

Nouns, like verbs, are divided into groups, called declensions. There are five declensions and three genders: masculine, feminine, and neuter.

The stem of a noun is the basic part of the noun that does not change. To get the stem of a noun, take the genitive singular of the noun, and take off its ending. For example: the stem of puella is puell; while the stem of rex is reg, because its genitive is reg-is.
