Infin. Wesa. Pr. Part. Wesande. Past Part. E-wesen.
The Frisian numerals (to be compared with those of the Anglo-Saxons, p. [43]), are as follows:—Én, twá, thrjú,
fjúwer, fíf, sex, sjúgun, achta, njugun, tian, &c. Of these the first three take an inflection, e.g., En, like Gode and the adjectives, has both a definite and an indefinite form, en, and thet ene; whilst twa and thrjú run as follows:—Nom. and Acc. Neut. twa; Masc. twene; Fem. twa; Dat. twam; Gen. twira.—Nom. and Acc. Neut. thrju; Masc. thre; Fem. thrja; Dat. thrim; Gen. thrira.
In respect to the Pronouns, there is in the Old Frisian of Friesland no dual number, as there is in Anglo-Saxon. On the other hand, however, the Frisians (whilst they have no such form as his) possess, like the Icelandic, the inflected adjectival pronoun sin, corresponding to the Latin suus: whilst, like the Anglo-Saxons, and unlike the Icelanders, they have nothing to correspond with the Latin se.
[§ 95]. In Frisian there is between the demonstrative pronoun used as an article, and the same word used as a demonstrative in the limited sense of the term, the following difference of declension:—
THE ARTICLE.
| Neuter. | Masculine. | Feminine. | ||
| Sing. | Nom. | Thet | Thi | Thjú. |
| Acc. | Thet | Thene | Thá. | |
| ||||
| Dat. | Thá | There. | ||
| Gen. | Thes | There. | ||
| ||||
| Plur. | Nom. | Thá. | ||
| Acc. | Thá. | |||
| Dat. | Thá. | |||
| Gen. | Théra. | |||
PRONOUN.
The Demonstrative in the limited sense of the word.
