Descendants

Note that modern Russian and Belarusian do not reflect Havlík's law, having normalized [жьньцъ] to [жьнецъ].

The Belarusian dictionary of Bajkoŭ and Nekraševič (1925), however, contains the now archaic plural of жнец (žnjec) — жанцы́ (žancý)

  • Old Ruthenian: жнецъ (žnecʹ) (genitive женца (ženca))
    • Belarusian: жнец (žnjec) (genitive жняца́ (žnjacá))
    • Carpathian Rusyn: жнець (žnecʹ) (genitive женця́ (žencjá))
    • Ukrainian: жнець (žnecʹ) (genitive женця́ (žencjá))
  • Russian: жнец (žnec) (genitive жнеца́ (žnecá))
