| == Notes ==
| |
| 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:
| |
| * The Kandi word order is not strict, but in this text predominantly SOV.
| |
| * Kandi has a number of evidential suffixes, one of which is the evidential hearsay, denoting actions only heard of in third person or myths.
