→Something wrong with Hebrew:מאין: new section
So please first correct your errors.

== Dear Victor, ==
Ok thanks for the feedback. I tried looking for "Perfect", "Imperfect", and "Participle" for [[Hebrew:אין|אין]] using 2LetterLookup but I was unable to find those terms. I also looked at the [[Grammar:Quick]] page but couldn't figure out which term to use. Perhaps I missed reading/understanding the Hebrew Grammar Tutorial. Feel free to point me to the right page or solution as to how to find this out.
[Edit: Also just did a search of this wiki for "declined primary" and found [[Rules:Hebrew entries]].] I want to help but think I might be too tired and/or lazy to try to fully understand some of the terms. Is the "declined" form of the word the more simple root, without the preposition?
Another question is should I instead of creating a page for the word containing a prefix, just split the word and make for the prefix a separate entry so as to avoid duplication of effort?
== Response ==
[[Hebrew:אין|אין]] is a particle. Particles have only one grammar form. For this particular word just write "particle". "Perfect", "Imperfect", and "Participle" are for verbs. 2LetterLookup does not show declined word forms, you need first transform a declined form into the primary one.
Primary forms for example in English are "cat", declined forms are "cats", "cat's"; "a cat", "the cat", "for cat" would be also considered declined forms (if they were a single word in English).
Never split prefix separately from a word. In Hebrew, prefix is a part of the word. The very reason we are working on this new dictionary is to consider every declined form of a word, including form with prefixes.
== Something wrong with [[Hebrew:מאין]] ==
[[Hebrew:מאין]] - something wrong with it.
