Adjectives and pronouns
Adjectives closely resemble the noun form, usually showing the same exceptions of nouns. Pronouns, instead, may exhibit different forms in the root form.
Adjectives
Attributive adjectives are always placed before the nouns they specify, while predicative adjectives are always placed after them.
wobar řirur (the) young man
řirur wobar wẽh (the) man is young
All adjectives agree in case and number with the noun they specify, being declined with the nominal endings.
jōbāɕu līruɕu rēw sōnu pinkucar sōnošucar mējseš the young man’s new house is located in the nearby village
Declension of qualifying adjectives
Example: jōbā, young
| jōbāli | jōbālī | jōbālinu | |
| jōbā | jōbāj | jōbānu | |
| jōbāɕu | jōbāɕuj | jōbāɕunu | |
| jōbāhe | jōbāhej | jōbāhenu | |
| jōbāxu | jōbāxuj | jōbāxunu | |
| jōbāxe | jōbāxej | jōbāxenu | |
| jōbācar | jōbācari | jōbācarnu |
The adjectival declension displays the same irregularities of nouns:
pass. rēw, new → ag. rēwəli, gen. rēwəɕu, dat. rēwəhe, ...
