Grammar concerning the core Kandi grammar is found in the pdf added on this page (to be added to Linguifex). However, a few things are still missing from the current draft:
We are glad that many days ago Paisi Diparei came to this world;
* The Kandi word order is not strict, but in this text predominantly SOV.
Thankfully, he then saved the world.
* Kandi has a number of evidential suffixes, one of which is the evidential hearsay, denoting actions only heard of in third person or myths.
In addition it is carved here in remembrance
{{gloss/indexable
that a man rose to life and told of falling rain.
| phrase = Kaputtíndannur
</poem>
| IPA = /ka'put:i:ndan:ur/
| morphemes = ka-puy=tindan=nur
| gloss = 2P-D.all=know.PRED=EVID.HEAR
| translation = They say he knows all.
| index = 1
}}
* Adverbial constructs are often produced with the instrumental applicative
{{gloss/indexable
| phrase = Awí wuhahaktunattu
| IPA = /a'wi: wuha'haktunat:u/
| morphemes = awi wu-ahak=tun=attu
| gloss = happy.PRED 1P-D.that=do=APP.INSTR
| translation = I happily do that.
| index = 2
}}
* The benefactive applicative often has an allative or dative meaning.
