===Nouns===

Nouns and adjectives have a rich morphology, albeit less ornate than verbs. They inflect for number (''ðūré''), definiteness (''thrȳ́zamétīd'' 'rememberedness') and possessedness (''ránmolíħe'' 'attribution'), but not for case. Nouns have singular (''cḗminnathā́''), dual (''~~síntathā́~~'') and plural (''ū̌rathā́'') numbers, and masculine (''qulzáthā'') and feminine (''deiáthā'') genders. In third- and fourth-person possessed forms, Themsaran makes a distinction, realized tonally, between the ''absolute'' possessed form, which indicates a noun possessed by a pronoun, and the ''conjunct'' possessed form, used to indicate a possessive relationship between two nouns and agreeing with the gender of the possessor.

Proper names are indeclinable, i.e. they are always definite, and cannot be possessed.
