Adjectives and pronouns
Adjectives closely resemble the noun form, mostly ending in a vowel and showing the same exceptions of nouns. Pronouns may exhibit different forms in the root form, while similarly ending in a vowel.
Adjectives
Attributive adjectives are always placed before the nouns they specify, while predicative adjectives are always placed after them.
kiibe tterni a young man
tterni kiibe the man is young
All adjectives agree in case and number with the noun they specify, being declined with the nominal endings.
In number agreement, adjectives select the plural ending according to the semantical distinction between animate and inanimate of the nouns they specify. In some texts, conversely, adjectives firmly select the inanimate endings, even when specifying an animate noun.
kiibeže tterniže the young men
kiibehii tterniže the young men
Declension of qualifying adjectives
Examples: kiibe, young, and sampo, new, with a semantically animate noun with a front leading vowel, llærme, father, and a semantically inanimate noun with a back leading vowel, kooto, house.
