Declension

There is one instance of 𐍄𐌰𐌹𐌺𐌽 (taikn) (Thessalonians II 1:5) which may instead be a form of an otherwise unattested a-stem neuter noun *𐍄𐌰𐌹𐌺𐌽 (*taikn); however, this is ambiguous. It is not clear from the context whether it is a nominative or accusative singular form. If nominative, that particular attestation is definitely an a-stem neuter noun. If accusative, it could still belong to an a-stem neuter noun, but would more likely just be a form of this i-stem feminine noun, of which multiple unambiguous forms are already attested.
