As in Knrawi, plurality and indefiniteness are treated as one category, and many nouns mark plurality or indefiniteness with suppletion. This suppletion is most often from fossilized final-syllable reduplication in Wascotl. | |||
====Pronouns==== | |||
Pronouns do not exist independently (except see [[Soc'ul'#Possession|Possession]]); the person and class of dropped nouns are instead only shown through verb agreement. | |||
The demonstrative ''jál'' can also be used as a pronoun. | |||
====Possession==== | ====Possession==== | ||
Possessive particles (alienable or inalienable) can also serve as possessive pronouns when verb agreement marking does not give sufficient context. | Possessive particles (alienable or inalienable) can also serve as possessive pronouns when verb agreement marking does not give sufficient context. | ||
Inalienable possession is generally restricted to family members, body parts, inherent or permanent qualities (for example ''tumiad'' "sanctity"), and internal processes (for example ''c'uád'' "thought"). Words in the latter two categories are more flexible in which type of possession they take, varying by speaker and region. | Inalienable possession is generally restricted to family members, body parts, inherent or permanent qualities (for example ''tumiad'' "sanctity"), and internal processes (for example ''c'uád'' "thought"). Words in the latter two categories are more flexible in which type of possession they take, varying by speaker and region. | ||
====Noun negation==== | |||
Noun phrases are negated with ''xen''', which can also function as a negative pronoun "nothing." | |||

These particles can cooccur, and are often combined for more specific or otherwise combined meanings, but in serial verbs are only used before the first verb.

''xen'' and ''xen''' can be used together with the same meaning as the latter on its own, and in formal speech prohibitive sentences use ''jaj'' in place of ''xen''. | |||

=== Adjectives and | ====Serial verbs==== | ||
Adjectives are not their own class of words, but are derived from nouns or verbs. Most often they are derived by zero-marking before other nouns or verbs, or with suffixes or particles. | Verbs are often serialized in non-formal speech, in which the verbs' agreement marking may or may not match. | ||
Aspect-mood marking and preceding particles are applied to the first verb in the serialization. Following particles are applied after either the first or last verb. | |||
Serialization is especially common when the first verb is an intransitive or sensory verb. | |||
===Adjectives and adverbs=== | |||
Adjectives are not their own class of words, but are derived from nouns or verbs. Most often they are derived by zero-marking before other nouns or verbs, or with suffixes or particles (see [[Soc'ul'#Part-of-speech modifiers|Part-of-speech modifiers]]). | |||
Some of these derived adjectives and adverbs have meanings that don't directly correspond to the word they are derived from; in most cases this is due to homophony in ancestral Wascotl words after dropping of the adjective suffix ''*-(c)osc'' or regular merging with forms ending in ''*-(o)tl'' (''*-osc'' and ''*-otl'' both becoming ''-ux''), for example ''toc'' "knife" or "sharp" from Wascotl ''*tequ-'' and ''*tequ-osc'' respectively. | Some of these derived adjectives and adverbs have meanings that don't directly correspond to the word they are derived from; in most cases this is due to homophony in ancestral Wascotl words after dropping of the adjective suffix ''*-(c)osc'' or regular merging with forms ending in ''*-(o)tl'' (''*-osc'' and ''*-otl'' both becoming ''-ux''), for example ''toc'' "knife" or "sharp" from Wascotl ''*tequ-'' and ''*tequ-osc'' respectively. | ||
=== Derivational morphology === | Comparative and superlative adjectives and adverbs are formed by placing the second compared word after with the postposition ''je'', but see also (see [[Soc'ul'#Reduplication|Reduplication]]). | ||
===Postpositions=== | |||
Soc'ul' has a limited set of general postpositions: locative ''eý'', lative ''je'', proximal/comitative ''ne'', ablative ''xenuz'', and distal/ablative/abessive ''xen'e''. | |||
More specific adpositions, when needed, are formed with ''{location} ... {postposition}'' constructions (for example ''m'e ... eý'' "on" from ''m'e'' "top"). | |||
===Numerals=== | |||
Soc'ul' uses base-12 numerals except in formal writing and very formal speech, which uses base-24 numerals with 13-24 derived from [[Knrawi]]. | |||

Nouns are not marked for number when using numerals. | |||
===Derivational morphology=== | |||
====Part-of-speech modifiers==== | |||
The plural/indefinite particle ''ez'e'' is also used to nominalize words from other parts of speech. Agentive nouns can be derived either from ''ez''' (the class-2 inflection of ''ez'e'') or from dedicated agentive suffixes ''-uóc'' and ''-ih''. | |||
The suffix ''-z'i'' is | |||
Inalienable pronouns can also be used as particles following adjectives to disambiguate them from possessor nouns; this disambiguation can also be done with the suffix ''-jí'' (which is also used to disambiguate adjectives from verbs, and to derive verbs adjectives). | |||
The preceding particle ''hez'i'' disambiguates and derives adverbs from other parts of speech. | |||
====-ax==== | |||
The causative suffix ''-ax'' can be used productively on any verb, as well as being used nonproductively on some verbs deriving verbs of new meanings. | |||
====Reduplication==== | ====Reduplication==== | ||
Most words (other than nouns and conjunctions, but including some particles) can be fully reduplicated after the word for augmented or intensified meaning. In verbs this can also mark an iterative or contrastive meaning, and in adjectives and adverbs it can also mark a comparative or superlative meaning when the thing being compared to is absent in the sentence. | Most words (other than nouns and conjunctions, but including some particles) can be fully reduplicated after the word for augmented or intensified meaning.

The reduplicated word comes after any particles that would | The reduplicated word comes after any particles that would otherwise be directly after the word. Reduplicated verbs only mark agreement on the first verb. | ||
