 “Adjective". In attributive function, “adjectives" are morphologically invariant. They
 follow the relevant noun:
-:''a yese quiko''
+(3){{Gloss
-:<small>ABS dog wet</small>
+|phrase = a yese quiko.
-:"a wet dog"
+| gloss = ABS dog wet
+| translation = "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''
+(4){{Gloss
-:<small>be.wet ABS dog</small>
+|phrase = quiko a yese.
-:"the dog is wet."
+| gloss = be.wet ABS dog
+| translation = "the dog is wet."
+}}
 In general, there is not much evidence in Skerre for sharply differentiating between adjectives and verbs.
