Frequently asked questions
Why does 'edel' become 'edler' in some contexts?
The adjective 'edel' has a stem ending in '-el'. When adding an adjective ending like '-er' (masculine nominative), the 'e' before the 'l' is often dropped to avoid awkward pronunciation, resulting in 'edler' instead of 'edeler'.
