===Adjectives===
Adjectives were uninflected, because they were split off from adjective-noun compounds.
===Verbs===
Verb tenses were relatively complex, but the personal affixes were restructured.
 
the pronouns are the usual English ones plus *swe
 
when the subject is nominal singular, "he", "she" or "it", the "swe" is required for verbal agreement
 
the 2sg and 3sg distal pronouns are number neutral so they don't need *swe
 
*Imperfective (the source of the English nonpast): e-grade or otherwise the unmarked form of the verb
*Preterite: sigmatic (-sə) or root aorist
*Future/Irrealis: sigmatic future
*Stative (the source of the English past): Originally a deverbal noun; o-grade (deriving nouns in PIE),  -d from -tús. It was not a true finite verb form so it didn't take ''-swe''.
*Active participle: -ənt
*Passive participle: zero-grade with -n from -nós, or -d from -tós
 
====Strong verbs====
*bhendh(-swe) = "bind" impfv, imperative
*bhəndh(-swe) = preterite
*bhendhəz(-swe) = future (explain the verner here)
*bhondh = stative
*bhəndhən = p.p.
*bhendhent = a.p.
 
====Weak verbs====
*luṗə(-swe) = "love" imperfect and imperative
*luṗəsə(-swe) = preterite
*luṗəz(-swe) = future
*luṗəd = stative
*luṗəd = p.p.
*luṗent = a.p.
 
====Semi-strong verbs====
*coldh(-swe) = "grasp" imperfect and imperative
*coltsə(-swe) = preterite
*coldhəz = future
*coildh = stative
*coldhən = p.p.
*coldhent = a.p.
