====Edenic Patterns====
=====Edenic Patterns=====


With the exception of verbs, the most fundamental word categories are encompassed by the Edenic Patterns. Through them, roots are easily morphed into practical terms, such as the lemma ''ādama'' "ancestry" out of the root ''-’-d-m-'' "ancestry" (inspired by the Hebrew name ''Adam'').

:{{note|4|4}} Incorporations may equal to adverbs (''-/-'') before consonants, as prefixes may equal to adjectives (''/-/'') before vowels. Those two word classes distinguish themselves in Adamic by the fact that incorporations modify nouns while prefixes modify verbs. Vide ''ādūqáfl'' "proto-language" and ''’āmúqul'' "to foretell since the beginning".
