+===Nouns===
+Most parts of Noun Phrases (NPs) in Velshaj merge together into a single word. For example /rɑnəɣtʃɑrpelloĭn/ is one word meaning "in the red hat". The adjective prefixes to the noun, the article suffixes to the noun, and the postposition suffixes to the entire NP:
+/rɑnəɣ- tʃɑrpel -lo -ĭn/
+red- hat -the -in
+===Personal Pronouns===
+Pronouns do not decline for case. Instead, position in the sentence determines part of sentence.
+====Clusivity====
+There are three first person pronouns, /ʒɑɣ/ 1sg., and /roz/ or /ez/ 1pl. /roz/ means "we" and includes the second person. /es/ means "we" and excludes the second person.
+====Register====
+There are many second person pronouns, each with their own specific uses. /ĭĭt/ is singular and familiar. It is what to use when addressing someone well known like a friend. Von is plural and familiar. It is what to use when addressing many people at once, but like /ĭĭt/, it implies a certain degree of familiarity and informality. /ʒĭ/ is formal and either singular or plural. It is what to use when addressing any number of people who are not known very well, or who have a different social status.
