Category:Russian adjectives with reducible short stem

Russian adjectives where the stem of the short forms is reducible; specifically, the short masculine singular has an extra vowel inserted before the final consonant, compared with all other forms. Examples are most adjectives in -кий (-kij) and -ный (-nyj), e.g. лёгкий (ljóxkij, “light, easy”) with short masculine singular лёгок (ljógok) and де́льный (délʹnyj, “efficient, sensible”) with short masculine singular де́лен (délen).
