Adjectives and pronouns

Adjectives closely resemble the noun form, while usually differing in their last vowel. 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 or before the verb.

sēmix ǧenex
the young man

ǧenex sēmix imū
the man is young

All adjectives agree in case and number with the noun they specify, being declined with the nominal endings. They thus display a complete declension set, not belonging inherently to one of the two classes.

sēmifu ǧenefu nubix tōmex ɕoħiva tōmšāva forūkī
the young man’s new house is located in the nearby village
