Deciding which Group a noun is in: in the vocabulary in Ecce Romani each noun is given in two forms - the Nominative Singular and the Genitive Singular ~ e.g. pater, patris; puella, puellae; puer, pueri; the Genitive Singular (look at the table below) is unique and tells you which group the word is in.
