Yassi is a S-O-V language, though the word order is not as strict as in English . Adjectives come before nouns. Nouns and adjectives are inflected for number (sing./plur.) and case (nominative, accusative, prepositional and genitive). There is no gender distinction. | Yassi is a S-O-V language, though the word order is not as strict as in English . Adjectives come before nouns.
