@Atitarev: it looks like нра́вство (nrávstvo) + -енный (-ennyj). I can find some hits for нра́вство (nrávstvo) on GB (an example). Is this an obsolete word? --Per utramque cavernam (talk) 20:26, 21 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

From OCS нъравъ (nŭravŭ) -> ru нрав (nrav) (=но́ров (nórov)). Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 20:49, 21 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Atitarev: yes, but there must be an intermediate word, as there's no suffix **-ственный. And since all the words ending in -ственный we have at CAT:Russian words suffixed with -енный are from abstract nouns in -ство (мно́жественный, пото́мственный, чу́вственный, де́вственный, etc.), this is probably the case for this word too. --Per utramque cavernam (talk) 22:18, 21 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
I wouldn't make it up if no sources suggest this. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 22:33, 21 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
