German. Sense: “law (study)”. Tagged by 84.161.31.8 on 4 December 2018, not listed:
“gender and inflection. Note:
- www.duden.de/rechtschreibung/Jura_Rechtswissenschaft_Fach and www.dwds.de/wb/Jura#2 state it's used without article and give no gender or inflection
- www.canoo.net/Jura?lookup=caseSensitive states it's neuter plural of Jus. www.zeno.org/Brockhaus-1911/A/Jura is similar.
- de.wiktionary.org/wiki/Jura#Substantiv,_n is different from this entry too - though usually incorrect too
- books.google.com/books?id=25dFAAAAcAAJ&pg=PA156&dq=Jura , books.google.com/books?id=ashFAAAAcAAJ&pg=PA1156&dq=Jura , books.google.com/books?id=4SRaAAAAcAAJ&pg=PP869&dq=Jura (?)” J3133 (talk) 08:29, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
- @J3133: Nothing is wrong here. Clearly widespread use; like one says “study law” in English, one says “Jura studieren” in DE. This is never used with article nor with attributive adjective, so gender and number is undetermined, and this is the case already in the remnants of the 19th century; only etymologically it makes sense to classify it as neuter plural. One also says “die Rechte studieren”, which is neuter plural. Fay Freak (talk) 12:18, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
- There was and still is something wrong with the entry. Currently it's "plural only" in the head, but masculine singular declension in the Declension section. --Schläsinger X (talk) 15:33, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
- @Schläsinger X: Removed. Which you seem could have done yourself. Fay Freak (talk) 16:12, 1 December 2020 (UTC).
- I could have removed it, but fixing it isn't that easy. --Schläsinger X (talk) 19:17, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
