Morphology
Nouns
Nouns are not declined for case.
There in no grammatical gender besides natural gender (similar to English).
Plural is usually formed in -(e)s.
The possessive is formed in -'s (-' after -s).
Adjectives
Adjectives precede the noun they modify.
Adjectives do not decline for case, gender, or number.
Comparative
The positive comparative is formed in two ways:
- The suffix -er.
- Preceding the adjective with the word maice "more" or pluce "more".
The decision of which method to use primarily depends on the length of the adjective.
The following adjectives have irregular comparatives:
- bone /boʊn/ "good" > milder /ˈmaɪldər/ "better"
- malvatch /ˈmælvətʃ/ "bad" > pire /ˈpaɪər/ "worse"
- moult /mɔʊlt/ "much, many" > maire /mɛr/ "more" or pluce /pluːs/ "more"
- pawk /pɔːk/ "little, few" > mainder /ˈmeɪndər/ "less, fewer"
The negative comparative is formed by preceding the adjective with the word mains "less".
Superlative
The positive superlative is formed in two ways:
- The suffix -ism
- Preceding the adjective with the word maxem "most"
The decision of which method to use primarily depends on the length of the adjective.
The following adjectives have irregular comparatives:
- bone "good" > ottem /ˈɒtɪm/ "best"
- malvatch "bad" > pessem /ˈpɛsɪm/ "worse"
- moult "much, many" > maxem /ˈmæksɪm/ "most"
- pawk "little, few" > mainem /ˈmeɪnɪm/ "least, fewest"
The negative superlative is formed by preceding the adjective with the word mainem "least".
Adverbs
Adverbs of manner
Manner adverbs are formed from the corresponding adjectives with the suffix -ment.
Some adjectives form irregular adverbs. For example:
- bone "good" > bean /biːn/ "well"
- malvatch "bad" > male /meɪl/ "badly"
- moult "much, many" > moult "much"
- pawk "little, few" > pawk "little"
Comparative and superlative
The comparative and superlative of adverbs derived from adjectives are identical to those of their corresponding adjectives.
The following adverbs have irregular comparatives:
- bean "well" > miles /maɪlz/ "better"
- male "badly" > pice /paɪs/ "worse"
- moult "much" > maice /meɪs/ "more" or pluce "more"
- pawk "little" > mains /meɪnz/ "less"
Articles
Precede the noun they modify.
- Definite article: le /lə, (stressed) liː/
- Indefinite article (only in the singular):
- Before consonants: a /ə, (stressed) ʌ/
- Before vowels: an /ən, (stressed) ʌn/

Verbs
Principal parts
For the majority of verbs, the full conjugation can be determined from three principal parts: the bare infinitive, the simple past, and the past participle.
These forms are given in dictionaries. Otherwise, the infinitive is used as the citation form.
When the simple past and past participle are identical, the past participle is omitted.
Verb classes
Verbs may be regular or irregular.
In regular verbs, the past stem and past participle are derived regularly from the infinitive stem with the suffixes -eve and -et respectively (-ve and -t after final -e or another final vowel).
Irregular verbs form their past stem irregularly.
Personal endings
The following personal endings are used in the present tense:
- -(e)s in the third person singular (archaic: -(e)th)
- -(e)st in the archaic second person singular
Other present tense forms use the basic infnite stem.
Besides the above, only the highly irregular verb at est "to be" has differing personal forms.
Tenses
As in English, continuous tenses are formed with the verb at est followed by the present participle, and the perfect is formed with the verb at have "to have" followed by the past participle.
The future is formed with the modal verb woll "will" followed by the bare infinitive of the main verb (or auxiliary in continuous/perfect tenses).
Voice
The passive is formed with the verb at est "to be" followed by the past participle.
Non-finite forms
Infinitive: at + present stem
Bare infinitive: present stem
Present participle: present stem + -(e)nt
Past participle: past stem
Negation and Interrogation
Negation of verbs is ordinarily accomplished using the word newn /n(j)uːn/ "not" (which can be abbreviated as 'n).
Negation and interrogation use the conjugated helping verb at fay "to do" followed by the bare infinitive. This construction can also be used in positive sentences for emphasis. Examples:
- You cant. "I sing." > You fay newn cant. "I do not sing." / You fay'n cant. "I don't sing."
- Ill dorms. "He sleeps." > Fays ill dorm? "Does he sleep?"
- Ell manges. "She eats." > Keeth fays ell mange? "What does she eat?"
- Lie wise. "They saw." > Lie fetch weethe. "They did see."
Modal verbs do not use the helping verb. Examples:
- Ill pote newn dorm. "He may not sleep." / Ill pote'n dorm. "He mayn't sleep."
- Note: Unlike in English, the abbreviation pote'n "mayn't" is not archaic.
- Derry ill mange? "Should he eat?"
Archaically, non-modal verbs can likewise form their negation and interrogation without the helping verb. Examples:
- You cant newn. "I sing not."
- Dorms ill? "Sleeps he?"
- Keeth manges ell? "What eats she?"
