      Usage notes

      [edit]

      When used in the plural genitive, nostrī is used when it is the object of an action, especially when used with a gerund or gerundive. When used in such a construction, the gerund or gerundive takes on the masculine genitive singular. Nostrum is used as a partitive genitive, used in constructions such as (one of us).

                  Usage notes

                  [edit]
                  • Nos (night, evening) generally refers to the uncoutable period of darkness. The word is also used with the names of evenings and nights of days of the week, with holiday and festival names and in the phrase Nos da (Good night). It is therefore the opposite of dydd (day).
                  yn ystod y nosduring the night
                  nos WenerFriday evening/night
                  Nos GalanNew Year's Eve
                  • Noson (night, evening), on the other hand, is countable and refers to an individual evening or night and so is the word used when employing a qualifying numeral or adjective. It sits in contrast to the word diwrnod (day).
                  noson wycha great evening/night
                  tair nosonthree nights
                  • Noswaith (evening) is used in phrase Noswaith dda (Good evening). It is also synonymous to noson in some southern dialects.
                  (South Wales) tair noswaiththree nights
