Most adjectives take ''-a'' (for hard stems) or ''-ie'' (for soft stems) if it is definite or plural: cf. ''se liaowa watnie'' 'the lukewarm water' vs. ''liao watnie'' 'lukewarm water' vs. ''se watnie ixtı liao'' 'the water is lukewarm'.

The comparative and superlatives are likewise normal adjectives, but the final consonant is palatalized: ''liaoyuer'' 'more lukewarm', ''liaoyuest'' 'most lukewarm'.
