Sg. {_nom._: autre autres autrüs autra

Pl. {_nom._: autre autri autras
{_obj._: autres autras
(6) Altretals autretals ＜ _alter talis_; by dissimilation, atretals:
by substitution of ai- (first syllable of aissi ＜ _ac sīc_) for atre-,
aitals; by fusion of aitals and atretals, aitretals; through analogy of
atressi, atrestals. Cf. § 74, 2. Inflection like that of cals (§ 134).
(7) Altretan atretan aitan atrestan etc. ＜ _alter_ + _tantum_: see
altretals.
(8) Cada un ＜ κατά + _ūnum_,‘every one’. The Greek preposition κατά was
introduced into the Latin territory, probably by Greek merchants, in
stating prices: καθ᾽ἕνα = _cata ūnum_, κατά τρεῐς = _cata trēs_; hence
cada ün, cada trẹi. Inflection: cada üs, cada ü(n); cada üna.
(9) Calacom qualacom qualaquom, ‘something’, ‘a little’, seems to be a
Provençal compound of cal and acǫ (§ 132), the last syllable of which
was perhaps understood as cọm cọ ＜ _quōmŏ_(_do_). Cf. quezacom below.
There is a diminutive calacomet, which helped to maintain the m of
calacom.
(10) Cals que quals que, cal que qual que, ‘whoever’, is a Provençal
compound.
(11) Cant quant can quan ＜ _quantum quanti_, ‘how much’, ‘how many’.
Cant, inflected like bęl (§ 103), is used also as an adjective and as a
masculine and feminine pronoun.
(12) Cascüs chascüs, ‘everyone’, ‘every’, appears to be a fusion of
cada üs and ✱cescüs ＜ ✱_cisqu’ ūnus_ = _quĭsque ūnus_ = _ūnus quĭsque_.
Inflection: cascüs, cascü(n); cascüna.
(13) Ent en n ne ＜ _ĭnde_,‘some’: cf. § 123.
(14) Maint mant man manh ＜ Celtic ✱_mantî_, ‘many’, ‘many a’, ‘many a
one’. Obj. pl. in -s, f. sg. in -a, f. pl. in -as.
(15) Molt mout mot mul mon ＜ _mŭltum_, ‘much’. For mọt, mul, mọn, see
§ 74, (2) and § 74, 1. Mọlt, inflected like bęl (§ 103), is used also
as an adjective and as a masculine and feminine pronoun.
(16) Negüs ＜ _nĕc ūnus_, ‘no one’. Inflection: negüs, negü(n); negüna.
Beside negün we find degün, apparently through dissimilation.
(17) Nüls ＜ _nūllus_, ‘no’, ‘none’. Inflection: nüls, nül, nül, nülh,
nüls; nüla, nülas. From nülh ＜ _nūllī_ comes a set of forms with lh:
see § 67, (2). Hence, by metathesis suggested by the analogy of negün,
lhün. A fusion of nülh and lhün results in lünh, whence a set of forms
with nh.
(18) Om ＜ _hŏmo_, ‘one’.
(19) Pauc ＜ _paucum_, _pauci_, ‘little’, ‘few’. There is also a regular
adjective, paucs, ‘small’.
(20) Que que, ‘whatever’, is a Provençal compound.
(21) Quecs ＜ _quĭsquis_ (§ 78, 2), ‘everyone’. From quẹcs were formed
an objective quẹc and a feminine quẹga (cf. amics amic amiga).
(22) Quesacom (diminutive quesacomet), ‘something’, ‘a little’, is
formed like calacọm above, the first element in this case being either
quẹs ＜ _quĭd_ or quẹ s = quẹ es.
(23) Qui que, ‘whoever’, is a Provençal compound.
(24) Res re, ‘anything’, ‘something’.
(25) Tals ＜ _talis_, ‘such’, inflected like cals (§ 134).
(26) Tamanh ＜ _tam magnum_, ‘so great’; f. tamanha.
(27) Tant tan ta ＜ _tantum_, _tanti_, ‘so much’, ‘so many’. Tant,
inflected like bęl (§ 103), is used also as an adjective and as a
masculine and feminine pronoun.
(28) Totz ＜ _tōttus_ = _tōtus_ (_Gram._, I, § 547), ‘all’, had a
regular inflection: tọtz, tọt, tọt, tọtz; tọta, tọtas. In the
masculine nominative plural, however, we find oftener the forms tüch
tüich tüit tüt tüti, which point to a Latin ✱_tūctī_ (cf. Italian
_tutti_); for this no satisfactory explanation has been discovered (see
Nigra, _Rom._, XXXI, 525). Hence we occasionally have in the singular
tütz, tüt, and in the objective plural tügz tütz; the last form occurs
also as a nominative plural. Tọt is frequently used as a neuter
pronoun and as an adverb.
(29) Üs, ‘some’; from _ūnus_, used as an indefinite adjective or
pronoun, we have the plural forms; ü(n), ü(n)s; ünas.
