===Adjectives=== | ===Adjectives=== | ||
In Xanian, adjectives are placed before nouns at all times. Certain adjectives which are descriptions for verbs or nouns will be modified to agree with the word it is attached too. For instance, ''Vâka Xâkömarī'' literally means "signed" or "spoken Xanian", simply translated as "Xanian language". As "vâka" represents a verb or action, it does not decline based on the word it is attracted too. However, ''Tâzeno Xâkömâro'', meaning "Imperial Xania", does decline, as "tâzeno" is a noun describing another noun, and therefore agrees with it. | |||
