Usage notes

Some English adjectives don't have a basic adjective correspondence in Tulvan, and using the attributive marking can result in an awkward expression for native Tulvans, just like saying something like "goodness to you" would be off in English. This is the case of "good", in most common greetings this is not expressed by an adjective in Tulvan, but by a noun meaning "well-being, goodness, wellness". -Nicomega (talk) 15:44, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
