1. Plurals of feminines in -e
Feminine nouns and adjectives ending in -e remain unchanged in the plural, keeping a form closer to the original Latin declension compared to the Italian equivalents. Thus unna ciave > doe ciave < duae claves “two keys” and unna noxe > træ noxe < tres nuces “three nuts”. Plural forms in -i, such as ciavi and noxi, are Italianisms widely spread especially in urban areas. Exceptions are feminines in -eise, whose plural form is now -eixi as in the masculine: unna zeneise > dötræ zeneixi “some Genoese women”.
