Jeïos has four grammatical genders. Neuter, masculine, feminine and gender neutral. The latter is used for things that have more than one gender (horse, dog etc.) or people who do not define as either male or female. Normal words are neuter (except for countries, which are female). Masculine is used for things that are male in real life (man, boy) etc. It also has three cases. Nominative, Genitive and Dative. Here are some words in declined in all cases.<br /> | Jeïos has four grammatical genders. Neuter, masculine, feminine and gender neutral.

Normally, articles are not used, instead, the definite and indefinte forms of a word have their own form. This can lead to very long words, for example: läraænþăm (of a teacher). But sometimes, articles have to be used if there is an adjective between before the word. For example, the big house = dat stóra hūsat (the big(a) the house). The -a is added to stór, because there is an article in front of it. | Normally, articles are not used, instead, the definite and indefinte forms of a word have their own form.
