1.3. root-stem nouns

In Proto-Germanic (like in Gothic), this class of nouns was characterized by the addition of case endings immediately to the roots of the nouns in question. That is, nouns of this type did not have any stem-forming suffixes and had always had two-morpheme (root + case ending) structure.
The OE root-stem nouns are also characterized by vowel gradation. Consequently, the difference between their case-forms is grammatically marked both by means of case endings and the vocalization of their case and number forms.
