-===Genders===
-Flewtish does have male-female distinction, however it is only limited to human species. In some adjectives, there is an animate-non animate distinction.
-===Verbs===
-<small>Flewtish does not have a present tense for the verb "to be". So things like "to be or not to be" can't be translated.</small>
-Unlike most languages, verbs in Flewtish aren't well distinguished. They don't have a specific ending and they can only be understood if their position indicates it within the sentence. Verbs are not inflected in any way, and to indicate tense, person, voice and number specific roots have to be attached to the end.
-eg. "Kṽuppa-tu-r-kog-ja" (kṽuppa) to ask - (tu) he/she/ti - (r) male gender - (kog) passive voice - (ja) past tense -- He was asked
