Notes:
- alter, altera, alterum (one or the other of two) is irregular: in all genders, its gen. sg. is alterius and dat. sg. alteri.
- Similarly, uter, utra, utrum (which of two) goes to utrius and utri; and its compound uterque, utraque, utrumque (each of two) does the same.
- Adjectives with the same characteristic include: alius, alia, aliud (other); nullus (-a, -um) (no); ullus (any); solus (only); totus (whole); and unus (one).
