The nominative singular of the jō-stems (gmw-pro *-ī) was originally uninflected like the ō-stems; and the accusative form usually took its place. The old nominative singular is preserved in fem. personal names, and in the derivatives ending in gem-pro *-inī and *-unjō. The jō-stems show in the oldest documents instead of -jō the ending -e and retain the j before o, u. From the 9th C. onwards, their inflection entirely coincides with that of the ō-stems, with -a replacing -e.de Altbairische Grammatik, Laut- und Flexionslehre 1907 Göttingen Vandenhoeck und Ruprecht Grammatiken der althochdeutschen Dialekte I.
