RFV for the inflected forms with stem genor- (genoris, genorī etc.). -80.133.96.43 04:07, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- When searching at Google Books for genoris one often finds OCR errors for generis and sometimes for Agenoris. Exceptions:
- books.google.com/books?id=glNJAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA103&dq=genoris (German text relating to Medieval Latin which also mentions Vulgar Latin and Romance languages): "die Gen. sg.-Form genoris zu genu [= knee]"
books.google.com/books?id=-cMAurDgc0MC&pg=PA45 : "In einem inschriftlichen Gedicht der Antike erscheint die Gen.-Form genoris zu genu566 [...]" and "566 CE 1253 (= CIL VI 9604), 5 (vgl. ThLL 6, 2, Sp. 1875, 32). That is: "In an inscriptive poem of the Antiquity the genitive form genoris for genu appears". - books.google.com/books?id=QofQAAAAMAAJ&q=genoris (English and Latin, might have a medical context): "In volnus genoris quot subito occidimus: genoris esse τοῦ γόνατος [Greek for of the knee or the knee's] (the knee) viderat Mommsen"
- books.google.com/books?id=rRwjAAAAQBAJ&pg=PA99 (about Vulgar Latin inscriptions): "ín volnus genoris quot || subito occidimus." í should indicate an ancient I longa, and the text resembles the one above.
- books.google.com/books?id=glNJAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA103&dq=genoris (German text relating to Medieval Latin which also mentions Vulgar Latin and Romance languages): "die Gen. sg.-Form genoris zu genu [= knee]"
- Thus, genoris should be attestable as a Vulgar Latin genitive for genu meaning of the knee or the knee's. But this is different from genus meaning kind, sort. -84.161.5.159 16:39, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- The IP who RFV'd this took the initiative and removed the inflection table in question quite some time ago now -- rightfully I believe, considering the lack of evidence for that inflection and the fact that it was added by an unreliable user. I think this can count as RFV failed, since nobody has objected for over a year? — Mnemosientje (t · c) 02:52, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
