Plural. ba8 lucite SEtjal bie toeiten Skater beS weiten SEljateS ber heiten SEpler bem weiten SEfjale ben toeiten SEhatern bad toeite Xfyai bie teeiten Staler 1. (c)tef er, jener, jeber, and a few others having the same distinctive endings as the definite article, have the same effect on the adjective they precede: as, biefeS atte @cf)toj3, this old castle; jeber et)itid)e SJtantt, every honest man. Nora--Tho principle underlying the declension of the adjective ( 81 to 83) is, that there should be sufficient inflection to show the case, and no more. Hence, whenever the limiting word has a distinctive ending, the adjective drops its own, substituting an indifferent e or en for it; but it retains its distinotive ending, whenever the limiting word lacks it. 84. Participles are declined like adjectives; as, cirt Iacf)en ber 'iptjitojopf), a laughing philosopher; getiebter SSater, beloved father. 85. Adjectives and participles are often used as substantives. They, then, retain their ordinary declension, but are written with a capital initial: G'iti TPranber ift Jjter. A stranger is here. SDcr Qrrembc ift Monb. The stranger is fair. 1. The most common participles thus used are: 5Der Secmtte (95c= em-Seamier, official amtete), ' SDer (c)ebtcnte, cm Sebientet, servant SDer (c)efangene, ein (c)efangener, prisoner. er (c)ctcfjrtc, cin (c)ctefjrter, learned man. S3er 9icifenbc, ein 9ietfenber, -traveller, (c)cr (c)cfanbte, ein (c)efanbter, ambassador. )er SSerwanbte, ein 23ernanbter, relative. 2. Also bcr (c)eutfdje, the German, is nothing but an adjective used substantively; hence a German is ein $Deutfd)cr; the Germans: bte (c)eutfdjett; Germans, JDeutfd
