The personal pronoun Template:M is also used when governed by any postposition with the exception of Template:L. Unlike other second-class pronouns, Template:M is used when governed by the postposition Template:L. Finally, Template:M is used as a possessive pronoun as well.

1. Template:Latn-def

Usage notes

• The reduced vowel is mostly represented by ⟨Template:L⟩. The alternative use of ⟨Template:L⟩ is restricted to the insular dialects:
  • In Föhr-Amrum Frisian, it only occurs when the suffix Template:M is added to a word whose basic form ends in Template:M. For example, Template:M is infinitive II of Template:M, distinguished from Template:M, the plural of Template:M.
  • In Sylt Frisian, any word-final Template:IPAchar is spelt ⟨Template:L⟩. It remains before inflectional Template:M or Template:M, but changes to ⟨Template:L⟩ before other suffixes. For example, Template:M → Template:M, but Template:M. Moreover, ⟨Template:L⟩ occurs in the prefix Template:M and word-internally in adapted borrowings (Template:M from German, Template:M from Latin).

   Template:Syn

Usage notes

• As for other Romance languages, such as Neapolitan or Portuguese, Sicilian definite articles have undergone a consonant lenition that has led to the phonetic fall of the initial l. The use of this illiquid variant has not yet made the use of liquid variants disappear, but today it is still the prevalent use in speech and writing.
• In the case of the production of literary texts, such as singing or poetry, or of formal and institutional texts, resorting to "liquid articles" and "liquid articulated prepositions" confers greater euphony to the text, although it may sound a form of courtly recovery.
• Illiquid definite articles can be phonetically absorbed by the following noun. I.e: l'arancini (liquid) and ârancini (illiquid).

Conjunction

1. Template:Lb and

   Template:Syn

Usage notes

Use of i as a conjunction in Slovene is obsolete and not well-known, so most nowadays speakers usually relate it with other Slavic languages rather than with old Slovene. Nowadays, its derivative, Template:L is used, which is etymologically speaking a stressed variant, but has since lost the initial difference.

As opposed to Template:L, i can be pronounced as stressed or unstressed form in all contexts (but if taken out of context, only the stressed version is allowed) whereas in is stressed only if taken out of context.

In less formal language, this distinction is not made in writing.

• Template:Uxi

• Used as a preterite tense form of ‘that’. The subject moves to the front of the subordinate clause, directly following i, and the verb changes back to its verbal noun form.
