    ălĭqui, aliqua, aliquod; plur. aliqui, aliquae, aliqua [alius-qui; v. aliquis] (the nom. fem. sing. and neutr. plur. were originally aliquae, analogous to the simple quae, from qui:

    tam quam aliquae res Verberet,

    Lucr. 4, 263, and Cic. Fam. 6, 20, 2 MS.; but the adj. signif. of the word caused the change into aliqua; on the other hand, a change of the gen. and dat. fem. sing. alicujus and alicui into aliquae, Charis. 133 P., seems to have been little imitated.—Alicui, trisyl., Ov.
