Adjectives

Attributive adjectives are always placed before the nouns they specify, while predicative adjectives are always placed after them.

muk tɬʼīx
(the) young man
tɬʼīx muk sūɣ
(the) man is young

All adjectives agree in case and number with the noun they specify, being declined with endings, which are only partially similar to the nominal declension endings.

mukət tɬʼīxuɟ žur tɬʼūβəg βəʂðət tɬʼūβuriʈ ʈīɣ
the young man’s new house is located in the nearby village

Declension of qualifying adjectives

Nouns are also declined in case by adding the following endings to the base form of the noun:

consonantal
class

class
nominative
- -
accusative
-ɴ / əɴ

-t / ət -t
