Use the prefix ne- on any verb's form to imply negation. Alternatively add the particle "nict" after the main verb, this is especially useful when a different prefix is already attached to the verb. | Use the prefix ne- on any verb's form to imply negation.

==Syntax== | |||
The standard word order is different for different sentence types. | |||
*Declarative: Subject - Instrument - Verb - Indirect Object - Direct Object | |||
*Interrogative: Instrument - Verb - Subject - Indirect Object - Direct Object | |||
*Exclamatory: Subject - Instrument - Verb - Indirect Object - Direct Object | |||
*Dependent clause: Subject - Indirect Object - Direct Object - Instrument - Verb | |||
===Comparisons==== | |||
Comparative forms use the particle "ðann" followed by the noun(s) being compared to. Depending on that noun's case will determine which noun is first making the comparison. For example: | |||
*"He jumped quicker than '''I'''" would yield "than I [jumped]" (in this example the compared noun is in the nominative). | |||
*"He jumped quicker than '''me'''" would yield "than [he jumped] me" (in this example the compared noun is in the accusative). | |||
