Notes

The word daut has an irregular plural. In Badul, plurals end in -an but this word's plural ends in a u. This dates back to Ucerian, where nouns with the -u stem had the accusative singular plural suffix of -u. For some reason it took over its nominative counterpart -ae. It kept this old plural construction due to its high usage. Even when the regular plural suffix changed, it was still kept and using the new plural suffix didn't feel correct.
