==Derivational morphology==
Derivations are achieved in Daùnare either through one of three methods:
* '''Compounding''' – combining two lemmas to create a new lemma
* '''Class derivation''' – forming new nouns by altering the class of an existing noun
* '''Affixation''' – adding a bound morpheme to a lemma to create a new lemma. This latter can be further subdivided into:
** '''Ciscategorical''' affixation, where the lexical category stays the same (e.g. deriving a new adjective from an existing adjective)
** '''Transcategorical''' affixation, where the lexical category changes (e.g. deriving a noun from a verb)

The definite clitic =n= is a mesoclitic inserted between a nominal root and its declensional suffix. Where a noun is possessed but detached from its possessor, the construct clitic =r= is used instead.
