Thank you for adding this test. Would it be correct to add "grammatical features" (e.g. plural (Q146786)) on wikidata:Lexeme:L1319680#F1? --99of9 (talk) 00:24, 2 May 2025 (UTC)
- I'm not familiar enough with Wikidata's schema to say, but I'd imagine not. Most nouns in Japanese aren't inflected for number (enwiki). (I was considering adding another test with one of the exceptions, "友達" = "friends", but decided against it because it could be considered the informal option as opposed to "友人", and per the note on enwiki there it's also singular.)

- That's an interesting challenge. Perhaps (for Japanese at least) we should just infer that the lexeme form is allowed as a plural from the absence of an explicitly marked "singular"? Also, if the function returned ラビット, would that also be correct? --99of9 (talk) 06:32, 2 May 2025 (UTC)
- For a function intended to be used in NLG you'd want it to return non-singular to cover languages like Japanese, but I've just noticed the description which says it returns
the first plural form (if any)
, so maybe not? d:WD:Lexicographical data/Documentation/Languages/ja/modeling doesn't mention singular (Q110786) or plural (Q146786). - As for 'ラビット', I'll defer to jawiki and say that it would be understood to be an English word. YoshiRulz (talk) 20:05, 2 May 2025 (UTC)
