語形変化

Second-declension noun (neuter, nominative/accusative/vocative in -us).

• In general, pelagus is used only in the singular. Rarely, the nominative/accusative/vocative plural form pelagē occurs, borrowed from the Greek original, but the expected form *pelaga is unattested. Likewise rare is the dative/ablative plural pelagīs.
• There is also accusative singular pelagum, which implies masculine gender. This would have nominative and vocative plural *pelagī and accusative plural *pelagōs instead of pelagē.
• The Ancient Greek genitive plural is πελαγῶν (pelagôn), while the Latin genitive plural ends in -ōrum or -um.
