===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===
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'; ''pazhae'' 'old'; ''pydi'' 'new'
 
Conjugation of predicative adjectives (present tense):
 
{| class="bluetable lightbluebg" style="width: 440px; text-align: center;"

|''-en''||''-o''
|-
!|2
|''-ae''||''-iaḷ''
|-
!|3.c
|''-or''||''-oḷ''
|-
!|3.n
|''-ad''||''-an''
|}
 
Example:
*1sg: ''nallen; perien''
*2sg: ''nallae; periae''
*3sg.c: ''nallor; perior''
*3sg.n: ''nallad; periad''
*1pl: ''nallo; perio''
*2pl: ''nalliaḷ, periaḷ''
*3pl.c: ''nalloḷ, perioḷ''
*3pl.n: ''nallan, perian''
 
 
Adverbs are formed from adjectives with the suffix ''-og'': ''nall'''og''''' 'well', ''pydi'''og''''' 'again'.

:All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act toward one another in a spirit of brotherhood.
