GUIDE WITH CLASSES

ENGLISH:
The article field is either empty or has "The " (space included).
There are three classes, en_s for singular nouns, en_pl for plural nouns*, en_a for singular nouns with article.
en_s: France is great
en_a: The Ukraine is great
en_pl: The Barbarians are great
*All plural nouns have article by definition

FRENCH:
The classes describe the gender (m or f), the number (s or v), the use of article (a or n)
and the starting letter, be it vowel or consonant (v or c).
If no article is used or if it is plural, there is no classification of the starting
letter, as it is irrelevant as info.
Examples:
- fr_fsav: L'Angleterre est puissante. Angleterre is feminine, singular, uses article,
  starts with vowel.
- fr_mpa: Les Gaulois sont puissants. Gaulois is masculine, plural, uses article.
- fr_fsn: Paris est puissante. Paris is feminine*, singular, uses no article.
* Some disagree on the gender of cities in French. For ease of purpose, we'll
  consider them feminine by account of the word ville (city).

GERMAN:
The de_n class refers to nouns that do not have a starting article, and is
thus used for the majority of entries.
The other four classes (de_m, de_f, de_s, de_pl) respectively say which
article is to be used with the noun. de_m will use der (masculine),
de_f die (feminine), de_s das (neuter) and de_pl die (plural).
The de_a class is a special category referring to entries named after
people (something on the line of "The Spanish"). They would use plural
articles, but also have a special preposition use modded in.

SPANISH and PORTUGUESE:
Classes describe the entry's gender (m or f), number (s or p) and
use of article (a or n).
Examples:
- es_msa: El Papado es poderoso. Masculine, singular, uses article.
- es_fsn: España es poderosa. Feminine, singular, no article.
( pt_msa: O Papado es poderoso.)

RUSSIAN and POLISH:
Classes describe the entry's gender or number (m, f, n, pl).
The gender is described if the name is singular and omitted if
the name in plural.
Examples:
- pl_m/ru_m: Irak jest wielki/Ирак объявил войну. Masculine
- pl_pl/ru_pl: Stany Z.ne są wielkie/США объявили войну. Plural
