Nyosangeyish is an analytic language, with verb tense and aspect being expressed with adverbs, and noun cases expressed with postpositions (which can become clitics, as in a=g "my" or ngedlo=f "at night".) The main exceptions to this are some derivational morphology, as well as verb mood, which is expressed with a suffix (fonşow-ec "accidentally see", akı céjug-u "smell that!"). Verb voice is also expressed with a suffix, which allows the speaker to modify word order. | Nyosangeyish is an analytic language, with verb tense and aspect being expressed with adverbs, and noun cases expressed with postpositions (which can become clitics, as in a=g "my" or ngedlo=f "at night".)
