===Nouns and adjectives===
Netagin has 3 genders (masculine, feminine, neuter; neuter forms can also be used as gender neutral and nonbinary forms). The feminine gender evolved from the Proto-Idavic abstract/honorific gender. There are two forms that are traditionally called cases (nominative, genitive), but are not true cases. The genitive is used for the ''last'' noun of a genitive or prepositional phrase; the genitive thus functions more like an "end of noun phrase marker".
