Nouns decline for number, definiteness and possessedness (my, your, his...) and belong to either masculine or feminine gender. There are three declension paradigms and four accent paradigms (one of ''k, š, th, g'') for nouns and adjectives.  
====Possession====
====Possession====
The possessed noun is declined for its own number and definiteness and the possessor's gender and number, in a tonally modified (downstep is not on the ending) form of the 3rd person possessed form (called the conjunct form): ''klajái'' ("her house") vs ''klájài ātmán'' (my mother's house). In most instances the possessee precedes the possessor.
