Usage notes

Only the genitive singular is attested, and the gender is not certain. If the noun was indeed masculine, the table below lists the forms. Otherwise, the correct lemma form may have been the neuter a-stem 𐌳𐌿𐌻𐌲 (dulg). However, most linguists seem to treat the masculine form as the likelier lemma.
