Those words whose vowels are short, and have therefore
a double r, drop one r in the n. g., before -/ and before the
termination to satisfy the orthography as three r’s ought not to
appear ;
but such words retain the double r in the f.
g. Norn. ;
as otherwise the vowels would be long and the root deformed.
As: hurt, burr, purr (dry); kyrt, kyrr, kyrr (still).
Those ending in s, agree with this rule, as: laust, lauss,
la us (free); particularly as a diphthong precedes; but h vast,
livass, hvGss (not hvOs) because the vowel is short.
In a word with a double s the vowel is accented in the
n. g. as: vist, viss, viss.
91. If a consonant precedes the last radical letter r, it
changes before -t and s into
J
(halfsound), never into ur ; but
into r before a vowel and the terminations -r, rar, ra, one
of the r is
dropped, as a double r behind a consonant cannot
be pronounced. The following example will prove the force
of these observations:
Sing. Nom. fagft fagf fogf (for fOg-ru)
Ace. fagrt fagran fagra
Dat. fOgru fogrum fagri (for fagrri)
Gen.
Plur. Nom. fogr
Ace. fogf
