===Mutations===
Tumaka has no mutation; instead, former feminine nouns often begin in an aspirated consonant. (cf. [[Eevo]], where former feminine nouns begin in different consonants than former masculine nouns.)


===Nouns===
Mjeolbon 'Melbourne'
Nouns only have two states (absolute and construct) and two numbers (singular and plural).  The usual affixes are:
*plural absolute: ''-(y)r''
*singular construct: ''-(y)th''
*plural construct: ''-(y)ph''


e.g. ''cuthyr'' 'flower', ''cuthryr'' 'flowers'; ''cufna'' 'woman', ''cufnar'' 'women'.

===Verbs===
sjeong - sky, skjeong - to clean
Tumaka verbs have two tenses (nonpast and past) and two aspects (imperfective and perfective). The imperfective-perfective distinction is characterized by allomorphy inherited from [[Old Eevo]]. As in Slavic languages, the perfective form is often derived by adding a prefix, which causes the verb to take the conjunct form. Most Tumacan verbs thus have two principal parts: imperfective and perfective.


An example of the aspect allomorphy:

*'to tell': imperfective ''boŋi'', perfective ''simŋi''
[w] is an allophone of hard /v/ after consonants.
*'to eat': imperfective ''cai'', perfective ''iŋcu''


The old subject/TAM suffixes have been lost and tense is marked by prefixes.
