The third person pronouns belong to the first paradigm of nouns, and are much more regular than the first and second person pronouns, although not completely regular. Like many other languages, Ris uses the third person pronouns to serve as demonstratives as well. In Ris' case, they are proximal demonstratives.
The patientive inanimate singulative pronoun also happens to be the Ris topic marker.

Enclitic
Ris enclitic personal pronouns are attached at the end of verbs, and indicate the subject or agent of the verb.
The enclitic pronouns only decline according to the core cases, the patientive and agentive.
- If the subject is in full control of its actions, it is marked with the agentive. If it is not, it gets the patientive.
The indicative enclitics are used when the verb is in the indicative or Imperative moods, and the subjunctive when it is either in the subjunctive or in the Potential.

Nominal
The nominal morphology is split into a number of classes, and there is a variety of different paradigms. The principal parts of a noun are therefore essential to memorise the paradigm.
There are three principal parts in Ris; the patientive singulative, the agentive singulative, and the agentive plurative. These forms helps you deduce the remaining forms.
Declension
Various sound changes:
- əs[-stress] > s / C[+plosive]_#
- əis > ei / _#
- əi > e / _#
- əis > ir / C_V
- V[-stress]s > t / C[+plosive]_V
- C[+plosive, -nas, -asp, -voice] > C[+plosive, -nas, +asp, -voice] / C[+plosive, -nas, -asp, -voice, +hom]_V
First paradigm
Dated, but the inflexion ought to work for the relay. Nouns ending in <-n> recieve a stem of <-nta>, in the declensions.
The singulative corresponds to singular, the plurative to plural, and the collective is nowadays called the plural indefinite.
