Udmurt Proper noun inflection
Place names based on names of old tribes
These words typically end on -я, –га, –ка, –ра, –ла. When inflecting in some cases, they take an infix which is optional.
The following may be exhaustive, but unsure yet.

- -га: Можга, Пурга, Дурга, Нылга, Эбга, Коньга
- -ка: Поска
- -ра: Бигра, Эгра
- -ла: Чола

| Elat. | Салья-ла-сь | Салья-ысь |

So far the PROP (underline) lexicon is a dummy pexicon that just gives +N+Prop, and then redirects to NOUNSUF_01.
Words from lexicon PROP_HEIMONNIMET are “old” tribe and place names, which have an optional infix for some cases, while some do not.
In HEIMO_SUFFIXES_LA, we append the cases with their post-ла realizations. Examples: | Case | Infix | No infix
| Iness. | Салья-ла-н | Салья-ын |
| Illat. | Салья-ла | Салья-е |
| Elat. | Салья-ла-сь | Салья-ысь |
| Egress. | Салья-ла-сен | Салья-ысен |
Note also that the infix results in a ‘short’ case affix.
In HEIMO_SUFFIXES_NIL, the word gets cases with no infix.
| Case | wordform |
| Terminat. | Салья-озь |
| Prol. | Салья-тӥ |
| Appr. | Салья-лань |
