===Adjectives===
Attributive adjectives agree in number, definiteness, gender and possessedness with their heads. The following differences with nouns should be noted:
Attributive adjectives agree in number, definiteness, gender and possessedness with their heads. The possessum state indicates that the adjective modifies a noun with a possessive suffix.
*Absolute possessive form of adjectives modifies the conjunct possessive of nouns.
*Possessum forms agree with definite possessum forms.


Predicate adjectives are declined differently than attributive adjectives; predicative adjectives carry the downstep on a non-final syllable, while the attributive adjectives have to agree with the downstep of the noun.
