Nominative and so-called Oblique are unmarked, while Accusative is marked with a prefix which is different depending on the Animatedness status of the noun : the prefix will be ke- (or k- before a vowel) in the case of an inanimate noun, and dake- (or dak- before a vowel) in the case of an animate noun. | Nominative and so-called Oblique are unmarked, while Accusative is marked with a prefix which is different depending on the Animatedness status of the noun : the prefix will be ke- (or k- before a vowel) in the case of an inanimate noun, and dake- (or dak- before a vowel) in the case of an animate noun. | ||

There are two main classes of verbs : those whose stem ends in a vowel, and those whose stem ends in a consonant. Verbs ending with an -a or an -i usually just take an -r to form the infinitive, while the other ones usually take a -ƃ /bɾa/. Verbs agree in person, animatedness and number with their subject. There are formally seven persons in TolsianR : first singular, second singular, third singular, first plural, second plural, third plural, and the "polite" second person used in formal contexts for which number is neutralized. | |||
