Usage notes
[edit]- The normal plural is Hunde. The plural Hünde is used to some degree regionally and in colloquial varieties, chiefly in southern and western Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Compare Luxembourgish Hond (plural: Hënn).
- By analogy with the plural, the diminutive is sometimes formed without umlaut, yielding Hundchen and Hundlein. Regionally, Hündelein, Hundel, Hunderl, or (rarely) Hundelein or Hundilein may be heard.
- To denote a male/female dog, also männlicher/weiblicher Hund and Hundemännchen/Hundeweibchen can be used.
