=== Adjectives === | |||
“Adjective". In attributive function, “adjectives" are morphologically invariant. They | |||
follow the relevant noun: | |||
:''a yese quiko'' | |||
:<small>ABS dog wet</small> | |||
:"a wet dog" | |||
In predicative function, “adjectives" precede the noun (phrase) of which they are predicated and are morphologically indistinguishable from verbs: | |||
:''quiko a yese'' | |||
:<small>be.wet ABS dog</small> | |||
:"the dog is wet." | |||
In general, there is not much evidence in Skerre for sharply differentiating between adjectives and verbs. | |||
