Hello, all:
In my previous post, I had sent a sample A-stem Lithuanian noun (vyras) for comparison against the two a-stem declension tables for PGmc *dagaz provided by Konrad.� I had also provided a sample u-stem declension for the Lithuanian and Old Church Slavic words for ���son���, and I had guessed at the PGmc equivalent.� Well, I���ve gone through some books that I have, _Grammar of the Gothic Language_ by Joseph Wright and _Early Germanic Languages: Pre-, Proto-, and Post-Germanic Languages_ by Joseph B. Voyles, and I found what they each consider to be the valid declension for PGmc *sunuz.� I���ve included each of their renditions along with the Lithuanian and OCS equivalents.� The PGmc forms in parentheses with a ���*��� are forms thatI���ve extrapolated from the information provided by Konrad.� They may not be correct, but it���s the closest I could come.� Hopefully, this will be useful.
