Feminine i-stem
The main feminine class which has a nominative singular ending "-π". It has a thematic vowel "πΉ".
Masculine i-stem is conjugated similarly to neuter i-stem and especially masculine i-stem classes from the same i-subgroup, though the singular conjugations and the genitives are different, as well as the fact that it lacks an animate-inanimate distinction in duals.

In the feminine i-stem nouns ending in a short vowel + π (diphtongs are not considered short vowels), the nominative singular -π is dropped. The same rule also applies to other nouns that have nominative singular ending "-π" as well as to adjectives.
Note, that the nominative singular ending "-π" is also used by following classes:
- Masculine a-stem
- Masculine i-stem
- Masculine nd-stem
- Masculine sc-stem
- Feminine sc-stem
