===Nouns===
{{PAGENAME}} nouns decline in 7 cases and two numbers. The declension system is rather complex as each noun displays several different principal parts and and ending allomorphs also vary based on the noun.

Adjectives do not agree with nouns but are conjugated like verbs in predicative position. Attributive adjectives are unmarked.
 
Examples of attributive adjectives:
 
*''nall'' 'good'; ''peri'' 'big'; ''cinh'' 'small'; ''paṛae'' 'old'; ''pydi'' 'new'

|''-ae''||''-iaḷ''
|-
!|3.c
|''-or''||''-oḷ''
|-
!|3.n
|''-ad''||''-an''
|}
