Usage

Use this template to show the headword line of Italian adjectives, including all the inflections.

The template adds the entry to Category:Italian adjectives. As with other Wiktionary part of speech templates, please do not use subst:.

This template contains the necessary meta-data to allow users who are using accelerated editing to create any grammatical forms semi-automatically.

Basic examples

Most of the time, no parameters are necessary. E.g. for , use:

which produces

chiaro

The module knows how to generate the correct feminine and plural in most cases. E.g. for an adjective in -e such as , use:

which produces

andante

Note how the module knows that the feminine of adjectives in -e is the same as the masculine, and both the masculine and feminine plural are in -i.

For nouns in -ista, e.g. , use:

which produces

abolizionista

Here, the module knows that the masculine and feminine of adjectives in -ista (similarly, -ita and other nouns in -a) are the same, but the plurals differ.

For nouns in -tore, e.g. , use:

which produces

abduttore

Here, the module knows that the feminine of adjectives in -tore ends in -trice, with plurals in -tori and -trici respectively.

For nouns in -one, e.g. , use:

which produces

chiacchierone

Here, the module knows that the feminine of adjectives in -one ends in -ona, with plurals in -oni and -one respectively.

Overrides

Some adjectives in -tore and -one follow the pattern of adjectives in -e and have the feminine the same as the masculine. To indicate that, use |f=#, where # means "same as the lemma", e.g. for :

which produces

Similarly for , use |f=#:

which produces

Adjectives in -io have the default masculine plural in -i. This works for most adjectives, but some take the masculine plural in -ii, either by itself or along with -i. To override the masculine plural use |mpl=, |mpl2=, ... to specify one or more explicit masculine plurals. An example is , with masculine plural either aratorii or aratori. Use:

which produces

Adjectives in -cio and gio have default feminine plural in -ce and -ge. This works for almost all adjectives in -cio, but some in -gio have feminine plural in -gie, either by itself or along with -ge. To override the feminine plural use |fpl=, |fpl2=, ... to specify one or more explicit masculine plurals. An example is , with feminine plural either grigie or grige. Use:

which produces

Adjectives in -aco and -ico have default masculine plural in -aci and -ici respectively (but default feminine plural in -ache and -iche). Use an override if this is wrong, e.g. for , masculine plural antichi:

which produces

Contrarily, all other adjectives in -co have default masculine plural in -che. Use an override if this is wrong, e.g. for , masculine plural greci:

which produces

Invariable and feminine-only adjectives

Use |inv=1 for invariable adjectives, e.g. :

which produces

Use |fonly=1 for feminine-only adjectives, e.g. :

which produces

Multiword expressions

Use |sp= to specify which word or words inflect in a multiword adjective:

• Use |sp=first if only the first word inflects.
• Use |sp=last if only the first word inflects.
• Use |sp=first-last if the first and last word inflect.
• Use |sp=each if all words inflect.
• Use |sp=first-second if the first and second words inflect.
• Use |sp=second if only the second word inflects.

Examples:

For , use |sp=first:

which produces

Same goes for :

which produces

For , use |sp=last:

which produces

Same goes for :

which produces

Note that here there are only two forms, singular and plural, as the adjective being inflected ends in -e, while the other multiword adjectives have four forms.

For , use |sp=first-last:

which produces

Comparatives and superlatives

Use |comp= to specify an explicit comparative, and |sup= to specify an explicit superlative. Use |comp2=, |comp3=, ... for additional comparatives, and |sup2=, |sup3=, ... for additional superlatives. For example, for , use:

{{it-adj|comp=[[più]] [[grande]]|comp2=maggiore|sup=grandissimo|sup2=massimo|sup3=sommo}}

which produces

Parameters

|head=, |head2=, |head3=, ...

Explicitly specified headword(s), for introducing links in multiword expressions. Note that by default each word of a multiword lemma is linked, so you only need to use this when the default links don't suffice (e.g. the multiword expression consists of non-lemma forms, which need to be linked to their lemmas).

|f=, |f2=, |f3=, ...

Explicit feminine singular(s). Normally, let the module autogenerate the feminine singular form. Use + to explicitly request the default, and # to set the feminine singular the same as the lemma (i.e. the masculine singular).

|mpl=, |mpl2=, |mpl3=, ...

Explicit masculine plural(s). Normally, let the module autogenerate the masculine plural form. Use + to explicitly request the default, and # to set the masculine plural the same as the lemma (i.e. the masculine singular); but if you are tempted to do this, you probably want |inv=1 instead.

|fpl=, |fpl2=, |fpl3=, ...

Explicit feminine plural(s). Normally, let the module autogenerate the feminine plural form, which it does by pluralizing the feminine singular(s) (explicitly given or defaulted). Use + to explicitly request the default, and # to set the feminine plural the same as the lemma (i.e. the masculine singular); but if you are tempted to do this, you probably want |inv=1 instead.

|inv=1

Specify that the adjective is invariable.

|fonly=1

Specify that the adjective is feminine-only.

|sp=

Specify the part(s) of a multiword adjective that inflect. Those parts will be inflected according to the default rules. See examples above.

|comp=, |comp2=, |comp3=, ...

Comparative form(s).

|sup=, |sup2=, |sup3=, ...

Superlative form(s).
