(a) short-stemmed version: win-
nouns, -i- stem, masculine gender

||
singular | plural | |
nominative | wine | wine; winas |
genitive | wines | winia, winiȝea; wina |
dative (instrumental) | wine | winum |

The ending -as in Nom and Acc appears by analogy with -a- stemmed nouns.

||
singular | plural | |
nominative | dǽl | dǽlas |

accusative | dǽl | dǽl |
The original endings of the -i- stemmed type were preserved in the long-stemmed version only by the above-mentioned names of tribes and nations.
(This type has no short-vowel version)
Long-stemmed version: dǽd-
nouns, -i- stem, feminine gender
dǽd
(deed; feet) |
||

genitive | dǽde | dǽda |
dative (instrumental) | dǽde | dǽdum |
accusative | dǽd, dǽde | dǽde, dǽda |
dǽda in Nom and Acc appears by analogy with -o- stemmed nouns.
Short-stemmed neuter nouns retain the ending -e (←-i) in Nom and Acc sing and are declined the same way as the neuter -ja- stemmed nouns of the originally long-stemmed version.

||
singular | plural | |

accusative | spere | speru |
The -i- stemmed neut nouns with long stem vowels are declined the same way as the short-stemmed nouns of the same type. The only difference is the fact that long-stemmed nouns do not have the ending -e in Nom and Acc sing.
